Are you Homeschooled?

[Dancergirl]

I go to public school, but sometimes when my teachers get REALLY annoying I wish I didn't.

I go to public school, and I would want to go anywhere else! I love all the cultures I encounter and that I dont have to wear a uniform!

[blackbird]

I agree about not having to wear a uniform that part of public school is wonderful!!!

[Irish_sunshine]

i don't have to wear a uniform either, lol.. homeschoolers dont

[Reeeljiggy]

Actually a lot of the public schools here have "dress codes" but it amounts to a uniform, everyone has to dress alike. And the really funny thing is, I know some home school kids who do have to wear uniforms! Their parents think it makes them feel more studious when they're doing their school work!!!

Yeah, here too. I try not to let it hurt my feelings but even my family is ignorant of it. They thought Mom was making a huge mistake...now they see how much we've learned and are more supportive!

I was homeschooled on and off several times, I've moved 20 times and been to fourteen different schools (counting homeschooling systems). The worst was a private/montesorri school in california. we weren't allowed to do anything! We did math everyday and vocab and then everything else was only twice a week. eck. But homeschooling is great if your really self motivated, and if you are then it is Very complimentary with dance. Now I go to public school for the last three years of highschool. I like it alot. except homework eww
