By the time they enter the first grade they are spending most of their time sitting behind a desk and being told what to do. They must read what the teacher tells them to, even if it is boring, they must sit and be quiet even if they do not want to, and must take directions from a stranger that they have never been introduced to.

What The Statistics Tell Us - Home School vs. Public School

The most recent documents released by the Department of Educationhave stated that home school students consistently rank higher on their SAT scores than their public school counterparts. This leaves me with the thought that the government’s “No Child Left Behind” mandate is failing in its move to increase the educational value offered in public schools.
