Can you define what a “day” of public education is? In Delaware, the government does not define it, so homeschoolers and public school officials all pretend attendance means something. We all know kids and teachers are all screwing off with half days and bullshit time fillers during the final weeks of the school year, but these 5-10 days count toward the 180? The system has a thin facade of competency.
I don’t school my children at all (excepting when I slip into the old trauma patterns I learned in school).
We live with the seasons. We learn as the sun comes up and goes down. We learn as we live. We do not live in a cinderblock building. We live in the loving spaces of God’s Creation and try to create more love in the world as we engage it with enthusiasm and curiosity.
