What’s The Deal With Charter Schools – HIRL Episode 123




Homeschooling IRL show

Summary: So, what's the deal with charter schools? We received an email from a listener who works in a local charter school that serves homeschooling families, and he has been surprised by the suspicion homeschoolers tend to bring to the table when the conversation turns to charters.<br> Yes, we're having that conversation, and we're having it with a husband and wife who have worked in and homeschooled through the charter school system in California. What are the pros of homeschooling with a charter school? When should you not?<br> If you think we didn't cover the reasons why homeschoolers might choose not to go with a charter, hang on. We did!
