I can't believe I'm jumping in on this topic but I can't keep silent any longer. I spent 33 years in public education as a teacher and administrator. I am proud and satisfied that our community school is offering students a good education and preparing them for the world if they want it and have parent support. There are good home schools, public schools, charter schools, parochial schools, private schools, etc., etc., etc. There are also bad ones in all of those examples. I once had a parent that was upset with our school that "home schooled " her kids for a year and a half and then sent them back after she had all she could stand. The kids were at least one year behind their former classmates. Any school from the above list is only as good as the attitudes and efforts of those doing the educating and being educated. Our public community school has a good reputation and good parental support. It also has dedicated teachers that care about kids. I won't bash home schools as a whole but at the same time I'll stand up for public schools that are doing the task as it should be done. I'm guessing there are other educators on this site that feel the same way. Are there problems in public education? Absolutely, but that doesn't always make for bad schools. The same goes for home schooling. I salute those in all schools that are dedicated to the awesome task.

It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
