[school-discuss] Not Just Home Schooling

[Joel Kahn <jj2kk4@xxxxxxxxx>]

Here's an article I strongly recommend reading:

http://writ.lp.findlaw.com/commentary/20080314_brownstein.html

While home schooling may not be on your radar screen, the
central principle imposed here--"that states may insist
not only that all children receive an education, but also
that the education they receive must satisfy reasonable
state standards"--deserves close attention by all people
involved in *any* kind of education. That "reasonable
state standards" thing has been a minefield for decades,
and the cases mentioned in this article may have very
broad implications down the road.
