    Here in WA the homeschool 'market' has been pretty rich for a few decades. It ranges from families doing things totally solo, to parents being the directors of their kids' education and picking who their kids will be in front of. I administrated a homeschool group that held to a Christian world view and offered instructors and classes a la carte. The Classical model has a number of coops springing up and then re-organizing as family choices change. Flexibility and parent record-keeping are keys to success. Take lots of photos of activities and date and scan documents!

    Standardized testing is a useful tool for policymakers. It gives them data about large student populations at the district and state levels. Standardized testing is a horrible way to evaluate individual student progress. How a child scores on one measurement on one day should not be used in determining grades, placement, interventions, etc. There are many ways to understand student progress through authentic products and performances. Those take time to analyze. Schools use standardized tests because they're quick, they're easy to administer, and because somebody else (the testing company) does the scoring. That's profoundly disrespectful to the work of students.

    I just wrote a paper on microschools and the regulations surrounding them, and was required to cite a certain number of peer-reviewed journal articles... it was like pulling teeth to try to find something that was helpful and relevant. We definitely need more studies! However... it's completely incorrect to say that 20 years ago, there was nowhere to go for homeschool resources or that no one had written books on it. 🤦🏻‍♀️They absolutely had. I read them... 20 years ago, lol.

    This option is far better than the present government monopoly situation , so thank you so much for all off your persistent efforts. However, this doesn;t stop the endless lifetime taxing of citzens going to corrupt and unaccountable bureacrats. The best outcome would be for this to be an incremental move twoard real freedom of eduction and freeing the public from eternal growing taxation to fund govt control. This kind of subsidizing of private education also does little to keep costs down although it does encourage competition, As you both allude to, regulation can expend into turing the private schools into increasing compliance with the state whereby the advantages would diminish as the private schools become more and more dictated to as per acceptable practices to receive the funds. The onll real path to educational freedom is to separate school and state .
