Wonder what the people who have voted "No" here think about home schooling.

I teach Spanish, but I minored in Social Studies. The only class I lacked was the methods class. I needed to finish, so I could get a job and earn money, so I just finished my Spanish major. The middle school where I teach could use someone to shrink the class sizes of the Social Studies teachers, but with a lack of space and empathize placed on reading and math, they could only support a part time teacher. With a little tweak of my schedule I could teach Social Studies and ease their burden. Hopefully this passes.
