Homeschooling Illegal?

Recently, the California Supreme Court handed down a decision based upon two 1950 rulings that ultimately makes homeschooling illegal in California unless the parent is a certified teacher. We could get into the why's and wherefore's as to why that's a problem (please drop me a line if you'd like to chat about it), but I share that so we might be in prayer for home school families in California and that the decision be overturned.

If you'd like further information on the ruling, you can stay up to date at www.hslda.org.

This will be a test for many families in CA. Will they stand up for their beliefs and continue to school at home in the face of significant persecution? Will they move? Will they send a parent to school to achieve "certification"? We are often faced with challenges; some battles need to be fought. This challenge to homeschooling may just be an opportunity to stand up and be counted.
