Texas Education Freedom Accounts reach homeschool families, South Carolina's gap, and a ten-minute Charlotte Mason nature study win.
Show Notes
Texas's Education Freedom Accounts are finally reaching families, with the first wave of awards out and approved homeschool students receiving one hundred percent up front. We weigh what the funding means, why South Carolina's program still leaves most home educators out, and how a ten-minute nature walk can be today's best lesson.
In this episode:
- Texas Education Freedom Accounts: more than 42,000 students accepted, homeschoolers funded at 100% with no testing mandate.
- South Carolina's Education Scholarship Trust Fund still leaves most home-educating families out.
- Your Homeschool Win Today: a ten-minute Charlotte Mason nature study you can do before lunch.
