A friend recently shared with me an old BusinessWeek article about homeschooling. Although published back in 2006, the article remains as relevant as ever (and even more so given the continued growth of homeschooling). The BusinessWeek article is overall very complimentary to homeschooling and even suggests that homeschooling is the new ‘secret weapon’ to gaining entrance to Ivy League colleges. The disappointing part of the article is that the blurb below the headline singles out ‘affluent parents’. Not that affluent parents aren’t leading the way, but plenty of not-so-affluent homeschooling parents are succeeding, too (they just sacrifice a little more). Anyway, this article explains why more and more parents are driven to homeschooling and homeschoolers and non-homeschoolers alike should read it.
