No Place Like School

Laramie, Wyoming homeschooling family makes the news.
No Place Like School...

Fourth-grader London Homer-Wambeam gets to cook and write and do art in school. He’s pretty good with his multiplication tables. He writes and illustrates his own magazine complete with puzzles, games, how-to-draw sections and serialized science fiction cliffhangers.

London loves his teacher. He literally loves her.

His teacher is his mom, Laurie Homer.

“It’s a lot of fun because if I have trouble with a problem — in public school, they would have tons of kids with the problem and the teacher would have to go back and forth — at home, there’s only one kid,” London said.
