We need to rethink how to define and measure "success" in schools. Thanks to Eric Wearne for having me on the Community Crafted Podcast!

New working paper with Matthew Lee is out! MAJOR findings, worth the read. In a nutshell, homeschool families are not who you think they are. 35% of HS families also have a child in a public school! Compelling evidence of within-household sector mixing.

This might be surprising to some folks, but many homeschoolers are democrats. A recent survey by Angela R. Watson and Matthew Lee found that 29% of homeschooling parents identify as democrats and 25% are politically liberal. Overall, 43% identified as conservative. Well below
