Thanks, Larry. "Boat-schooling" is something we'll be doing after '08
if the plans hold...picture Skip Gundlach with a seven year old and
twenty years younger!

But to move away from politics... Homeschooling at sea! I can't wait!
The kids are pretty excited, too.



Here's a good link I found:

I have some liveaboard friends who home schooled two boys with a program
from the Univerity of Nebraska-Lincoln:
University of Nebraska-Lincoln
Independence Study High School
Tel: (402) 472-2175
Fax: (866) 700-4747
mentioned on this website. Both boys went on to earn masters degrees being
automatically accepted at UNeb upon successful completion of the remote-
controlled high school. I looked at some of the correspondence materials
they used. Most impressive. World travelers, the boys got lots more
experience at sea than any kid in the finest private school in the country.
What they lacked was socialization with their generation, as do most home
schoolers, which is not good.

Hah! For me, picture Skip but with two pre-teen girls and a foot
shorter.
