I believe (could be wrong) that this is where Piers Anthony, a well-known fantasy/sci-fi writer, went.

About three hours drive from here is the Albany Free School. Its a
wonderful place where kids of all ages mix together. There is no
cirriculum. There are no classes unless a kid wants to learn something
specific.

There are rules. One can't hit another kid without it going to a meeting
on the consequences. One is not allowed to destroy another's creation,
etc.

They are in all rights of New York State, a school.

The children there are prolly unschooled more than a good portions of
children who stay at home to do the exact same thing.

Its whose AGENDA is being followed that determines the name of the game.
