Dr. Brian Ray of the National Home Education Research Institute (NHERI) completed the 2009 homeschool academic performance and demographics report. The results can be found here.
These results show that homeschoolers are doing just fine academically (in the 80+% compared to 50% for public school norm on national standardized achievement tests) and it is independent of parental education level, income, amount of government regulation, teacher certification, or amount spent per child.
If you are considering homeschooling, come out to our seminar this Saturday, November 14th, in Parker (information on our events page). We’ll talk about academics, but also about character and a larger vision:
