15 Fascinating Facts About the History of Homeschooling

This article is quite interesting for homeschoolers or those just fascinated by homeschoolers.  Did you education in the United States was mostly homebound until the 1830's?  Did you also know that between 1990 and 1995, the number of homeschoolers practically doubled? The most interesting thing I learned was that there is actually a college specifically geared for homeschoolers (Purcellville, Virginia-based Patrick Henry College).

  2. Interesting article indeed. I have heard of the college though...probably has something to do with the fact that we live in Virginia :)
