Thousands of families all over the nation are opting out of traditional public schools. Even more are choosing not to out their young children into preschools. Due to health concerns, political activism in the schools and other personal reasons, many families are looking for the best option for their children elsewhere. Parents realize that
it is they, rather than the state, that gets to decide what their children need.
Many families are not able to pay the often-high price of private schools or are on long waiting lists for their child to be accepted. Many would prefer to homeschool or perhaps join a coop of
like-minded parents to educate their children the way they want.
