I started homeschooling this year, my oldest has diabetes T1 and had some scary lows last year in public school and during the summer he had lows. I have my reasons for homeschooling, always wanted to do it, and now have decided to. I sent my withdraw letter to the school on Aug.24th, and today I received a letter from the municipal court to appear the 14th for failure to register? The school responded to my letter, said they wouldn't need anything else from me, why this? I did sign up with HSLDA, I'm just confused, I document everything, we are going all year round, with 1-2 week breaks every three months (pending on holidays). Anyone else from the Odessa/Midland area that homeschool? Have I made life harder than it already was for my son? They want me to have him appear in court also? Court room is no where for a child to be, in my opinion, unless they have stolen or broken the law. We dedicate Mon-Fri, 8-4 sometimes 5 or 6 in the evening to school. I'm scared and I'm mad. Is there anyone out there in Tx who can help comfort this uneasy scared feeling, I almost feel like I have broken the law, but I know my son will advance in so many ways, he's G/T, yesterday I gave him a practice G.E.D. test, just for fun on math and he only missed 3 questions out of 64, he's only 13 years old, we have a strict curriculum and lessons . AAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, I guess is all I can say, I am waiting for a legal counselor to contact me from HSLDA.............
I just wanted a safe environment for my child. Any opinions ? Nice reassuring ones? javascript:insert_text('
