of the executive producers of the 2011 award-winning film,
IndoctriNation: Public Schools and the Decline of Christianity in
America and executive producer of Escaping Common Core: Setting Our
Children Free.
Scripture gives fathers the mandate to raise their children in the
nurture and admonition of the Lord. This includes the education of
children, with many parents choosing to home educate. The result is
that home schooling is growing in significant fashion. Secular forces
are noticing and push-back is taking place as school districts, and
even state legislatures, are increasingly viewing parents in an
adversarial way, wanting them out of the education process.
Connecticut House Bill 5468 is one such example. It would require
registration with the local school district, mandate curriculum
aligned with state standards and maintaining detailed student
portfolios documenting academic progress.
Other related points discussed include:
What happened to “Common Core”? Is it dead?
How can the church get engaged with the effort to help home schooling?
Should a Christian run for a public school board position or not?
What are the four main reasons why people home school their children?
If you have children or grandchildren in the public school system,
you’ll want to review the information on this vital edition of
Crosstalk.
