Pandemic exposes need for choice, brings surge in homeschooling

 black homeschooling mom and child

"Virtual learning" in America over the past year likely exposed many parents to what their children were actually being taught in the public school system – and apparently it resulted in a surge among minority families to seek alternatives such as homeschooling.

The pandemic shutdown has led to a big jump in the number of minority families choosing to homeschool. Census Bureau data indicate a surge of homeschooling in black communities during that period – jumping from 3.3% early in 2020 to 16.1% last fall, to the delight of black pastors.

  1. Home schooling is fine, however I DO NOT want school choice! The school where I grew up - a formerly decent, quiet place with good state ratings and a great atmosphere - is now overrun with feral outsiders. Reason being is that every morning there is a line of cars stretching from the entrance to the building, around a half mile down the street. These are people who do not live in the district, but have relatives who do and they use that address to get their "children" into the school. These people come from such wonderful places as the South Bronx, Queens, Brooklyn and Yonkers. The school board won't say anything because they're afraid of being labeled racists.
    A friend of mine who's daughter currently attends our old HS tells me that out of the 60, or so kids that are allowed into the school, two, maybe three are serious students, the rest are no different than the element they left. They come into the school and instead of seeing a place for a fresh start, they bring the element they left behind and start drug rings, gangs and fights, especially the females.
    No, separation is the only answer. The feral garbage MUST be made to remain where they are if we're to keep our remaining good schools in their current state. I am sick to death of these "educators" with the no child left behind crap. It's time to face facts that some species in our society will forever be nothing but a drag on the rest and that it's time to wall them off. Better yet, make sure no more of them get in in the first place.
