Between May and October 2020, homeschooling more than doubled among U.S. households with school-age children, from 5.4 percent that spring to 11.1 percent that fall, according to new Census Bureau data.
Black and Hispanic Americans were the most likely to switch to homeschooling, while white and Asian Americans were the least likely. This could be due to the fact that African-American children are the most likely to be financially locked into poor-quality school districts, or that black Americans have been the most likely to exhibit COVID caution, or some combination.
All demographics reported large increases in homeschooling between spring and fall 2020, but black Americans increased homeschooling the most, quintupling from 3.3. percent to 16.1 percent.

Good that Blacks and Latinos are home schooling as Democrat politicians can't win elections without their votes.

Chicago Teachers Union (CTU) was one of the few pensions in Illinois to NOT lose money. But the Public Schools in Chicago are about the same grade as in other large cities.
I knew a woman in NYC who was working two jobs just so she could afford to keep her son in a private school.
She wanted to send her kid out here to me so she could go to Syria as a cook for the U.N. I squashed that idea pretty darn quickly. ;)

Also some of the "mainstream" homeschooling curricula has a lot of indoctrination built into it, so these people aren't going to get the same results we've seen from the liberty oriented curricula.
"...black Americans have been the most likely to exhibit COVID caution..".
Their modern masta's are on the TV.
