Some of the most famous artists, composers, writers, judges, inventors, religious leaders, and presidents in the world were homeschooled. It’s no coincidence that some of the most brilliant minds in history were developed and challenged in homeschools.
A homeschooler’s education isn’t limited by one dimensional curriculums like those offered by public schools. Homeschool students learn in unique and education focused environments which are why homeschoolers, on average, test 30-37% higher than public school students in all subjects! A homeschooler’s mind is challenged academically on a daily basis because the curriculum is custom made to fit their strengths and weaknesses.
Homeschoolers don’t have to deal with the consistent distractions that plague public schools. Homeschoolers can learn in a quiet setting that allows them to interact with adults in a mature way.
Some of the greatest leaders, artists, and writers ever, who are fervently studied in most schools, excelled because of their homeschool educations. It is exciting to think about which one of our Grace Academy homeschoolers will become the next Thomas Edison, Leonardo Da Vinci, C.S. Lewis, or Abraham Lincoln.

The fate of abstinence education is up in the air, as evidenced by current educational policy changes in the state of Washington. This YouTube video illustrates the implication of such legislation.
The best way to fight this kind of legislation is to pull our children out entirely. Public sex education programs tend to lean on the very liberal side, often encouraging abortion, promoting homosexuality, and condoning the use of birth control in pre-marital sexual activity.
It’s clear that a political agenda is at work here. We need to teach our children that abstinence is the only way to prevent sexually transmitted diseases, pregnancy, and emotional dysfunction.
John Stossel’s “Stupid in America” is not a new documentary. However, I think it’s important that we revisit this landmark documentary every once in a while and discuss its implications. It’s clear that socialism simply does not work. Why do we use this outmoded system in education?
What makes this video stand out is its accessibility. You’ll never find a clearer, more basic argument against the public schools. It’s almost poetic in its indictment of the teacher’s unions. I have to laugh every time I see these teachers declare in complete seriousness that money is the answer to all of our problems. What a joke.
Please, homeschoolers, pass this along to your friends.
