你好, Having gone to public and private school, i can give a fair recommendation that while I learned more academically in private school, I learned more about dealing with difficult people and real world situations (accidentally) in public school. Home schooling can be part of the answer I just hope you are allowing your children to grow. More schooling isn't an absolute, just look at japan and ask why they don't produce (as many) innovators.
I very much applaud your efforts to improve education of your state, i hope you keep up the good work. After looking at your bio, i see that you're very involved in the education system. I'm curious what brings you to HN other than good news and good commentators ^_^ . Do you also have plans to take over the world with a start-up like the rest of us?

Public school is hardly the sole source for the teaching of "socialization" skills for children. Exchanging 50% graduation rates for lessons on "dealing with difficult people" is hardly a bargain.
- thinkbohemian 17y agoIf you're the type of person to home school, then your children aren't the demographic that doesn't graduate. On the other hand i've seen divisions in a YMCA league between the students who go to school together and the students who don't. Home schooling is very empowering, and beneficial. I support it and you. Not all parents consider "socialization" necessary, but you are obviously not all parents. Kudos.
