| The state's official position is that homeschooling by becoming
a private
| school (the R-4 affadavit) is illegal. OTOH, that's been the
state's
| official position for years now, and they haven't bothered us
(although
| some individual districts have bothered some individual
homeschooling
| families, but we've always won in the end). There were some
changes this
| year and some people were worried, but now it sounds like it
won't be a
| problem.
