What
to look for in an association
1)
Talk with other home schooling families. (If you do not know any, attend
one or more of your local home
school support group meetings. Ask them some of the same questions below,
about the association or associations, which they have been members of; and
2)
Contact each association and ask the following questions:
-
Ask
if the association is a non-profit (e.g., 100% free membership,
501c3) or a business.
-
Does
the association mandate more than the requirements of SC SEC 59-65-47?
-
How
does the association handle contacts by public officials with their
members? (e.g., Can you get your association on the phone, at the moment
of contact by said official? Does the association encourage the
giving or give member information out voluntarily to officials, which have
no warrant or written legal cause for said private information?)
-
Does
the association do a record review, in the event their member is legally
challenged? (In other words, does the association allow non- SC SEC
59-65-47 officials to hold the home school to a standard, which is beyond
the law that the home school is operating under and in most cases I have
seen, above the standards, which are not even being met in the public
school system.)
-
Does
the association have any legal council, which are fully versed in SC SC
59-65-47. If so, what is track record of said legal council? (e.g.,
conviction, overturn, throw out or drop record, pertaining to the members
of such legal cases.)
Each
home school family is unique. The needs of one family will be different
from another. Going with the flow may not always be the right
direction. What works for one may not work for another. Research
each association completely, before making this very important decision.
Just
my 2 cents. Tara
