Bellevue, WA
There's a story circulating through the Bellevue School District
about the woman who called wanting information on home schooling.
Both Lake Washington (Renton, WA) and Bellevue districts are noted
for their support of home schoolers, and the Bellevue spokesperson
was explaining procedures and what to do to the mother on the
telephone.
Among other things, the mother needed to file a declaration of
intent, a kind of home school registration. The spokeswoman offered
to send out the proper form.
The mother gave a Renton address.
The spokeswoman suggested registering the children in her home
district in Renton, the Lake Washington School District.
"No way," said the mother. "Everyone knows Bellevue schools are much
better than Renton schools."
