MAJOR ALERT for Private School and Homeschool Parents. The Plan: Your Child WILL be Taught Common Core.
State education departments can gain control of private education and homeschooling through more regulations, oversight, reporting requirements, teacher licensure mandates
Do you think you have freedom to educate your child as you, the parent, sees fit? Do you look to the State for educational development/delivery for your child or have you selected private/homeschool options? If you have chosen private/homeschool options, it may not be much different than the public school education offered by the state of Alabama. The state not only controls the public development/direction of education, it will also control both private/homeschool educational development/direction.

This video of the Alabama State Department Education meeting with private, church, and home school representatives will make your blood boil. They are creating a new department, charging new fees, implementing unprecedented oversight and reporting requirements, and monitoring the list of those schools that do not register with the State Department of Education. If you do not register, your students are unable to attend a postsecondary institution (2-or 4-year). Home schoolers MUST report attendance, grades, coursework, etc. to the local school superintendent on a regular basis. I could go on and on. Please take the time to watch it! Please share this with everyone in our group and others...
