Cherie (Parent) Date: Monday, August 14, 2006 From: Kerry Beck I was amazed to learn that most Americans receive a Conveyor Belt Education! When I taught in the public school I had no idea I was on the Education Conveyor Belt.

I have been pursuing entrepreneurial training for each of my children and have felt like a lone horse on a deserted trail.

The first few years were okay, but the last two were horrors of the Conveyor Belt.

We decided to enroll Ashley in a private Christian school.

I didn't even know what that was.

Thank you for being a voice in the desert that will give guidance to us many lone horses that are headed your way.

There was never enough money to get a class set of a real living book.

I have been homeschooling 6 years and as far as I can see, there is little-to-nothing available in this area of education that has any practical application for homechooling parents to use in the mentoring of their children.

When Ashley gave answers that weren't the textbook answer, she was told to rewrite her essay.

Then I said, Just ....

One thing that always bothered me was not being able to use real books.

Thank you for taking the time to put together valuable training material on leadership education.

Move Forward Several Years .

I told her I was proud of her answer because she spent time thinking for herself and lining up her answer with Scripture.

Each year I had a new crop of students and taught them the same skills as all the other fifth graders in our school.

Everyone else that I know that home schools is on the conveyor belt to keep up with the public education counterpart.

By the time my oldest was ready for kindergarten, I knew I did not want her in the public school.

At the time I knew something was wrong, but couldn't put my finger on it.
