Hi, I happened upon this site while doing research for a college English class for a paper on homeschooling. I was wondering if anybody could give me some good, scholarly sources that would benefit me in helping to prove that homeschooling is compatible and at times superior to the public school system. I would really appreciate any direction, as the internet can lead a person around and around when trying to search for good information. Thanks so much!
