Zen Habits has a post saying Education Needs to Be Turned on Its Head. I agree with a lot of the points in this post. We thought about homeschooling / unschooling our kids, but we felt that they would miss out on the social aspects of regular school.
Once they hit junior high, we’ll take another look at alternative schooling. By then they’ll be old enough to participate in a wider variety of activities which should provide them with a wider circle of social interaction. By that age, they should have formed valid opinions of what works for them. It’ll be interesting to see what happens.
