Interesting Book on Homeschooling
I am reading a new book on homeschooling from a black
mother's perspective. She successfully homeschooled her 3 sons. Two (twins) are currently at Princeton and the youngest is at Amherst. It is quite an interesting story and I reccommend it to anyone interesting in homeschooling and in vouchers as well. These parents were not poor, they were successful, middle-class blacks whose children were in one of the *best* private schools. I don't want to describe the mom and dad's reasons for this because she does it herself so much better than I can unless I type her words. Suffice it to say that as a black family, they felt, despite there own education in prep schools and ivy league colleges that their own boys were *not* getting the best education and that institutional racism was involved in that fact. At any rate, this is a book worth reading. Morning by Morning by Paula Penn-Nabrit -- Dorothy There is no sound, no cry in all the world that can be heard unless someone listens .. Outer Limits |
