Question regarding ODE feedback format
We have received several questions regarding the categories of “stakeholder type” and “affiliation” queries on the Ohio Department of Education’s template to collect public feedback. Please fill in what is most comfortable for you, but it should be perfectly OK to simply put “parent” in both boxes.

I am a retired public school teacher from Bryan City Schools. I have had the privilege of testing many homeschoolers with my classes. Each time they excel. My daughter has and is home-schooling her 6 children and I will hold up their education beside any public school educated child. I know there are several home school moms that are probably not doing a good job, but don’t you as educators know MANY teachers that do not do a good job?”??
I have just good recommendations for Homeschool children and believe that OHio should remain stedfast in what we are now doing. In fact this testing that we are doing in the classroom is defeating our teaching. We are teaching cirriculum, not children!
Probably this review has been brought about by the problems in California. If any on this review board have been or are teachers….it has been my experience thru’ many years of teaching that anything that comes out of California will fail…open classrooms, cirriculums ( Bryan bought many that were not useable…cost alot and we went back to better ways ie Ohio ways!
I would like to say that in your review , give thanks that homeschoolers are learning and will be good, taxpayer citizens, like their parents.
sincerely, Charlotte Culler
