Does Bounds Want to Force Homeschoolers Into the New Virtual Public School Program?

VPS passed and was signed into law earlier this year. My theory is that Bounds (State Super) is using child abuse to inflame and gain support. I believe his true aim is to route homeschoolers into the state’s new VPS program. And you all are echoing a lot of our concerns; namely, with such a dismal reputation, why don’t they clean up their own backyard and leave us alone?
