Where do kids living in a foster home go to school?

Carla asked:


I am righting a story, and I don’t know where they would go to school. Like, does the foster home have its own teachings, like home schooling? Or do they go to their city’s school district?
Foster homes, as in like an adoption center. Where kids wait for people to take thm into their care..

Can you still get into a university if you home school during high school?

Please Don’t Lick Me asked:


My friend said that homeschooling and GEDs don’t look good on your college app. and that universities don’t even accept you. I want to home school but I also want to get into a university. Are home schoolers stuck with community college?

Is it healthy for a child to go back and forth from public school to being home schooled again?

singlemom1 asked:


2 of my sisters in law do this quite often with their kids. One has 3 children and the other has 5. The kids are at public school for 1 to 2 months then something “happens” at the school and Mom decides to pull them out and home school them. Until things get crazy at home, then she send them back to public school. Has anyone ever dealt with this issue that could shed some light on why they may be doing this with their kids? One of the sisters-in-law even moves her kids back and forth between different public schools in the city, usually when her kids have a disagrement with a teacher or another student. Its just weird.
The children’s ages: 5, 7, 8, 10, 12, 15, 16,

Should I continue being home schooled or should I go to High school?

Trenia D asked:


I was home schooled for my 8th grade school year and I wanted to know should I continue being home schooled through high school or should I go back to public school? I attend an online public school now but should I go back to public school? Why or why not. Thanks
