  • But is it 72% learn for 5 hours a week or 50% learn for 25-40 hours? Both can’t be true.

    Having a student teacher ratio 10x-20x greater than public schools one would hope that homeschoolers drastically outperform public school students, rather than just have marginally better academics. It’s also worth considering that many families can’t afford to have a parent teaching instead of working.

    In my state, there are no reporting or testing requirements, and parents themselves issue highschool diplomas for their kids. With such lax rules in most states, how trustworthy can surveys even be about the academic performance of homeschoolers?
