People who have the ability to homeschool their children should because schools get paid for "asses in seats". No kid at the desk, no money - this was told to me by a school official and it's why they get so upset if a child is absent.
If our children were not grown, I'd talk to friends and see about team teaching. My strengths are English, Science, and History. Someone strong in Math could teach a group of children that subject. Could even have the "school" travel to 2-3 houses a week so that the burden would not fall on just 1 person.
We did have a group when our daughter was small. Each Mom or Dad would teach their own child(ren) at home but we would get them together at the park and/or take field trips. I was amazed that a day's worth of classes only took a couple of hours per day.
I read of a teacher who got fed up with the cucked education system and quit her job. Some parents have hired her to do homeschooling for groups of children (I presume by age). Win-Win
Your brilliant idea sounds like Education Nirvana.
Thinking seriously about doing this with our grandchildren if they move to our town. I could start with our eldest - he's 8 yrs old and going to 2nd grade. Praying they move here. I could see them all the time and homeschool too!
