Great Unschooling Article

I received this from another list I am on http://groups.yahoo.com/group/A2Zhomeschool/ --Enjoy!--Tabbi

From the Chicago Sun-Times
(here's the URL)
http://www.suntimes.com/news/education/184566,CST-NWS-unskul24.article

and an excerpt:
"Eighteen-year-old Abby Stewart got word this month that she won early
admission to elite Princeton University, even though she has never set foot
in a high school classroom.

She also wrapped up a huge challenge -- dancing the Snow Queen role in "The
Nutcracker Suite" at the Athenaeum Theatre -- largely because she has never
set foot in a high school classroom. "

Nice article, without the obligatory opinion of some educrat somewhere
predicting terminal stupidity and social retardation.
