Consider this claim: Children who are homeschooled are just as academically capable as those who attend public schools. Which is the strongest evidence to support the claim?
A public school administrator commented, "I support a family's right to homeschool their children. We will not stand in anyone's way."
A meta-analysis of studies of homeschooled children concluded that homeschooling appears to result in closer family relationships.
An institute dedicated to research on home education asserts that children who are homeschooled score better on standardized tests than their public-school counterparts.
One study found that in the U.S., about 2.2 million children in 2010 were homeschooled, and that number is likely rising.
