There's a whole lot of people with teaching credentials who are still shitty teachers.

Also, I looked up CA's homeschooling laws and it said:
Quote:
Teacher Qualifications: None, if home school registers as a private school, or enrolls in an independent study program with a private school. Certification is necessary only if the home school parent chooses to qualify as a private tutor.
Also:
Quote:
Under § 48222, the individual home school could qualify as a private school by filing an annual private school affidavit: b. the instruction must be in English
Which made me laugh considering all of the ESL programs public schools have.


This does happen all the time. HSLDA | Top Stories Archive keeps track of a lot of them. (You just have to wade through the whacky christian parts.)
