Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Parents who home-school their children in the District are facing tighter regulations. The new rules were written in the wake of a tragedy earlier this year in which four home-schooled children were found dead in their mother’s house in Southeast. But the District’s home-schooling community is concerned the new regulations may have gone too far. Join Kojo as we discuss how the government can best ensure that home-school students are receiving a quality education in safe environments.
Guests
- Ethan Reedy President, D.C. Home Educators Association
- Deborah Gist State Superintendent of Education, District of Columbia
