    Judge compels homeschoolers into public school, cites religion

    Just your friendly neighborhood anti-religious-education representative reporting for duty:

    A judge in Wake County said three Raleigh children need to switch from home school to public school. Judge Ned Mangum is presiding over divorce proceeding of the children's parents, Thomas and Venessa Mills.

    Venessa Mills was in the fourth year of home schooling her children who are 10, 11 and 12 years old. They have tested two years above their grade levels, she said.
    "We have math, reading; we have grammar, science, music,” Venessa Mills said.
    Her lessons also have a religious slant, which the judge said was the root of the problem.

    Of the problems (unfortunately) to be found in this situation, I don't think "religious slant" is one of them.

    And while we're on the topic of homeschooling, do check out Homeschool Connections which offers free online seminars for Catholic Homeschool Families.
