Interesting indeed! Thank you for sharing that with me.. It is articles like that that cement my resolve in continuing to homeschool. I see the difference between my kids and others and it too helps reassure me this was the best decision we could've possibly made for them. And there are some really super awesome public school teachers (I know some in the community and they are great teachers and people) but the number of scary individuals that I see/meet that I find out are teachers too is enough to make me not want to take that chance with my kids.
now see THAT is what I am talking about.. my two favorite parts:
"homeschoolers, on average, scored 37 percentile points above their public school counterparts on standardized achievement tests."
and
" It seems homeschooled kids are far from isolated from peers, do well in social situations, and are more likely to be involved in their community. The education level of the parents had little effect on the success of their children, as did state regulations, gender of the student, or how much parents spent on education."
THAT is what Im talking about!! Go team homeschoolers!!
look at you with all those swaps on your dash board!! :) I got a full one too.. and congrats on the news about sam (saw it on vld's profiel)- I know you are proud!
I actually am going to believe this. And they'd be wise to pursue him. The Avalanche are really trying to get a good young core going and he would be a great fit with his size and skill. Go Sam!!!
Hmm. Not that I recall but maybe that's why I don't. Lol. Oddly though I have been hit on the wrist with one. Luckily I caught it still but it hurt. And I got a nod from the shooter of the puck... Alex Ovechkin :)
