With the rise of "virtual school" during the pandemic, more and more parents realized that public schools don't care about parental rights or opinions (and are grooming our kids).
With the start of the 2022-2023 school year, nearly 2 million students have left public schools and are now receiving their education elsewhere.
Largely thanks to people like Corey DeAngelis.
Parents are waking up.
From The Hill:
Education Next poll crafters acknowledged in a statement that that decline could stem from parents choosing to remove their children from district schools to charter or private schools, but the decline could also be linked to parents not knowing how to define their children's school when learning was done mostly online.
Last spring, district school enrollment bounced back up to 77 percent and enrollment has hovered at that rate since then, according to the publication's most recent poll.
That percentage drop means that almost 2 million students have left a traditional public school for either a charter or private school or to be homeschooled.
Poll findings show that the three other schooling alternatives have seen bumps in enrollment numbers. In 2022, private school enrollment ticked up to 10 percent compared to 8 percent in the spring of 2020, and the number of U.S. children attending a charter school went up from 5 percent to 7 percent over that same period of time.
More children appear to be taking their course work at home, the poll found. Over the past two years, the portion of the country's students being homeschooled bumped up from 6 to 7 percent, which represents a doubling from 2016 numbers.

In the percentages game, a 4% decrease may not seem like much. But 2 million children breaking free from the government "prison system" is absolutely a tremendous thing, especially when those schools rely on every child for that sweet taxpayer money.
And here's an important note: Even though a majority of government schools have stopped the crazy Covid polices, people are still leaving in droves!
