“They have done really well,” a mother of four, Tara Carter, told Fox News. “The advances in reading have been amazing.” …

Carter pulled three of her kids – a kindergartner and twin first-graders – from public to home-school this year but allowed her ninth-grade daughter to attend high school with her friends. Her decision to switch to home-schooling derived from disagreements with the curriculum focusing on topics such as gender identity and sexual orientation. …

Texas students pulled from public schools for home-schooling increased by 40% in spring 2021 compared to the previous year, according to the Texas Education Agency. Many families shifted to home education during the COVID-19 pandemic, but Carter previously told Fox News she believes some parents kept their kids at home to avoid classroom politicization and bias. …

“I think it’s so much better for the children,” Carter continued. “Schools, I think, can really mess with children’s mental health, between bullying and feeling like they’re falling behind.”

Based on the success of their first semester, Carter said she would continue to home-school her kids and recommended other parents consider the alternative.

“I’ve loved it and the kids have loved it,” Carter told Fox News. “You do not have to be a genius or have a teaching degree to teach your kids.” …
