You haven't said anything that contradicts what psijac said. The fictional character Sheldon Cooper entered UT at 11 and graduated summa cum laude at 14. He earned his first doctorate at 16.TexasGal wrote:Respectfully, I would ask you to attend one of the home school conventions where some of the best curriculum in the world is offered for sale. Home Schoolers are not just making it up as they go along. The booths are overwhelmingly run by home school families whose small to teen children will discuss the merits of whatever is available on an intelligent adult level. I have been to several and it never fails to impress me the average public high school student would be a fish out of water. The students who are breaking records at your local college for the youngest to graduate are home schooled.psijac wrote:All the home schooled people I know are just a little bit off. They have no sense of how to interact with their peers. Its like watching a live version for Sheldon Cooper from the big bang theory
Based on my classmates, and stories about teachers like this, I think maybe the baseline Texas budget has the right idea to cut spending to public schools and universities. Cutbacks in K-12 might force them to focus on the 3R basics, instead of bilingual classes and football and cheering and this teacher's anti American brainwashing. Raising tuition at state universities might cut back on the number of students who are not ready for university level work and shift the financial burden where it belongs.
