 You can sit back and ask this question to yourself, you first have to go and look at the curriculum that home school programs offer versus public schools. Than factor in all the politics that goes on in the schools upper crust society that decide if your kids will learn about the subjects, or learn how to pass the state tests. Let’s look at some of the issues that some parents have when they think of homeschooling. 

  v      No social interaction with other children.

          v      Teacher available to answer questions?       

      v      What about physical education?

        Those are a few concerns that parents have, I know there are more, here’s some information related to those concerns.

  v      Think about the kind of socialization experiences you want for your child. Your home schooled child need not be limited to the artificial community of his or her peers that’s offered in the formal school environment, but rather, can benefit from a wide variety of interactions and relationships.

  v      Contact your public school about having your child participate in whatever extracurricular activities it offers. Many districts welcome the participation of homeschooled children in sports teams, clubs, theater productions and other activities. (You may have to sign a waiver releasing the school from responsibility for your child.)    

      v      Consider the same kinds of resources you would if your child were in a traditional school environment. Many township organizations, nonprofit groups, and clubs such as bands and orchestras, scout troops and 4-H have chapters devoted to homeschooled kids. If not, your child can still participate “after school,” like everyone else.     

      v      Join a local homeschool group. Most offer a broad range of activities, including field trips, where your child can benefit from group interaction.     

     v      Take advantage of the flexibility homeschooling offers. Socialization could mean bringing your child with you to one of your own church or community group activities, or having lunch with Grandma. 

       Ask local resources such as art centers, skating rinks and music schools about offering instruction and/or use of their facilities to your homeschool group. Often, their staff and facilities are idle during regular school hours, and they might welcome the chance to get some use from their resources.  This is one of many articles that I will be writing for anyone who is interested in homeschooling. So, is homeschooling better than public schools? That is a question only answered by what school your child attends. The differences in curriculums, teacher’s salaries, and the politicians in your state, have a big impact on if you get a warm fuzzy on how your child is being educated
