From Public Schools to Homeschooling: Why Millions of Parents Are Choosing a New Path

Are America’s public schools failing students—or working exactly as designed? In this episode of Main Street Matters, Elaine Parker sits down with Robert Bortins, CEO of Classical Conversations and co-author of Woke and Weaponized, to explore the growing debate over public education, homeschooling, and school choice in America. They discuss the rapid rise of homeschooling—from just thousands of students decades ago to millions today—and why more parents are questioning traditional public school systems. Bortins shares the origins of Classical Conversations, how classical education differs from modern schooling, and why many families are turning to alternative education models after COVID-era classroom disruptions.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
