The COVID-19 pandemic is reshaping the way we think about just about everything, and opening the eyes of Americans to alternatives to public school.
There are about 2.5 million homeschooling children in the United States today, but what if 8 million more kids start homeschooling in the fall? Ongoing school shutdowns could make that happen.
A federal right to education would lead to a national, one-size-fits-none educational system, under which states would be powerless to object. It’s an unconstitutional disaster.
