"Some families feel compelled to join up with the public school system in a “partnership”, in order to get extra funds for computers, music lessons, and the like. I would strongly discourage this. Not only do you lose your status as an independent homeschooler (your child becomes, basically, a public school student, working from home), but it puts at risk the opportunity for others in the future to homeschool. Should the Lord agree that music lessons are what your child needs, I have full faith that He would provide the means for you to procure them, outside of governmental “help”. Be well advised that public schools embark in this sort of partnership not for the good of your child, but for the federal money in their accounts and the educational control you would begin to relinquish."
