Our children have been attending the Community school for 6 years. We previously homeschooled on our own with some resources through the state. What I found was our children were isolated. At my best attempt to take them to group activites, I failed. Trying to 'schedule' play days were hard. Especially when you have little ones who nap. The school not only provides a great enviroment to learn, but a loving enviroment where friendships are developed. Lastly, if I may conclude with this: Homeschooling is NOT for everyone. There are difficult days. And I have yet to experience 'time on my hands' as a previous parent wrote. It has however been a worthwhile investment of time in our childrens lives.
