Illinois’ Homeschooling Regulations
BevK September 25th, 2007
Start asking questions about home schoolers in Illinois and there’s one answer you won’t be able to find: How many there are.
Illinois is one of 10 states that leaves the increasingly popular option of home schooling unregulated.
One state legislator finds this surprising and thinks there should be regulation and testing. Another legislator thinks, “The notion of regulating home schooling seems to be a solution in search of a problem,” Harmon said. “We have an awful lot of issues to fix in our education system, but the home schooling system seems to be working just fine.”
I guess you know where I stand on the issue. I’m for as little regulation as possible.
