Episode Synopsis
In this episode, the Essence of Homeschooling podcast takes a deep dive into Colorado's contentious Amendment 80. The discussion highlights concerns from homeschooling advocates, such as Statheros Academy and HSLDA, who consider the amendment both a potential boon for school choice and a possible Trojan horse for increased government regulation. The dialogue explores how Amendment 80 could redefine educational freedom, questioning who truly holds the power to decide 'quality education' and highlighting the tension between parental rights and children's autonomy.Statheros Academy's position statementHSLDA's position statement.
