Uh... I thought 5A was the highest it could go. It must have been a boarding school or some where they cram a billion kids into a huge campus.

Size of the school.

Ew, no. I'm opposed to homeschool.

Or it's just Baltimore.

Go to real school and find out.

I agree with that last statement.

Homeschool is way better. I can research everything. The subjects I do are flexible, and I can learn things in better ways than I could anywhere else. A Latin curriculum from the early 20th century, a writing curriculum that actually gives interesting assignments, advancing in maths more quickly than anyone I know IRL, all sorts of wonderful things that I could never get anywhere else. And all my subjects are Christian-written.

Dude, I can research anything I want to. But I'm earnestly anti-homeschool.

I did a quick search and tere are some places with Class 7A, but I think the # of kids required for a school to be in that class is dependent on the state. I'm not sure.

Whenever I need to at any moment. And bluh. Whatever.

Ohhh, that makes sense.

You sacrifice social development and witnessing opportunities.

I've had countless of the latter over the internet for the last 2-3 years now. Another reason we reject going to public schools is because compromise. The only right answer on a test about evolution will be evolution, for example.

And how effective has that been?
That's why parents are supposed to teach them the ways of the truth.

How effective has what been? And the point is that answering the test "right" is compromise.

Witnessing online. Have you actually brought a single person to Christ?

It's just playing the game, gaming the system. You would never get into an amazing college like MIT with homeschool credentials.

Nearly, a few times.

And I will never do that. I do the right thing and know that God will work out what happens next. We very nearly entered me in an online public school for Honors and AP this year, until we realised the compromises. For that matter, I'm actually planning on going into Bob Jones University in SC, for my BA in Physics and Chem.

"Nearly."
God calls us to be salt and light; not to coop up away from sin. I answer questions "correctly" on tests because it builds to greater good that I can do. I won't ever support homeschooling under most conditions unless something major changes in the world.
