I went to public school K-4 grade. Due to a discrepancy in grading from my fourth grade teacher, I had a rough year-to say the least! Education has always been important to my parents (they are both college professors) so my education, (being their only child) was of supreme importance...ohey vey! And, I'm so very proud and appreciative of their love, concern, strength, and passion for education! Due to their strong role in the education system, and the lack of trust with the current public school curriculum in our area at the time, they decided that I should (and could be) home schooled. I'm very grateful for their dedication and time spent with me for the sake of my little fifth grade mind!
...to keep this story from boring everyone to death-sorry, if it already has-here's a list (yes, education done correctly! haha) of my education:
K-4th grade: Public School
5th-6th (up to Christmas break): Homeschool
6th (from the return of Christmas break)-7th grade (up to the following Christmas break. If you were unable to follow, that was a total of one whole year): Charter Academy
The rest of 7th grade: Homeschool
8th grade: Public School (think: the year from Hell!)
9th-12th grade: Homeschool/Jackson Community College (duel-enrollment program, which allowed me to graduate with my Associates degree when I was 18) Yay!
Fhew! That was intense!
What was you'r schooling like? I'm always interested in how people feel about pubic education, homeschooling, charter academies, etc... It's a hot topic, because of the importance, but I'm very interested in hearing you'r view point! Please share...
This is why I liked being home schooled, and why I love hearing about other people doing it:
