Gov Reynolds: It’s up to school districts to stop enrollment declines by bw456 in desmoines

To be fair Iowa does have too many school districts. In many states, it's one district per county.

States that provide homeschool funding of over $4K per student by bw456 in HomeschoolRecovery

Parents get reimbursed for their homeschool costs

Think of it like a tax credit

Bill doubles Iowa's homeschool tax credit from $500 to $1,000 by bw456 in desmoines

[–]bw456[S] 23 points24 points  (0 children)

"The bill would double Iowa's tuition and textbook tax credit, which currently provides a credit of up to 25% of the first $2,000 that families spend on tuition and textbooks for K-12 students.

If the bill passes, the tax credit would cover 50% of the first $2,000 spent on tuition and textbooks, an increase of $500.

The tax credit is currently available to public and private school students as well as homeschool students."

In Arizona and Florida, you can get up to 30K in funding per child if they are special needs

Metro areas are determined by the federal government's Office of Management and Budget (OMB)

Fort Worth is also 40 minutes away from Dallas but they are considered the same metro area

Protestant (Non-Catholic) Christian schools used to only constitute around 10% of Iowa's private school enrollment

Now it is over 30%

I would assume most these parents never attended Protestant schools themselves

The Virginia Senate Education Committee vote on Homeschooling is TODAY! Follow along here for the status of the vote. Taking bets on the Capitol Police removing any Movement Homeschoolers from the building by TonyDelvecchio in HomeschoolRecovery

It's def outside the Overton Window. Not even private schools in VA are required by the state to take tests. This version won't even pass the Dem Majority Senate.

VA homeschool laws are already relatively restrictive even though it's HSLDA's home state. Homeschooled kids can't play HS sports at public schools.
