Have you read the CA Governor's statement regarding the judges' ruling about homeschooling?
The Governor of CA has made a statement supporting the efforts of home-school parents. ---- Quote from news-sources:
--Schwarzenegger denounced a state appeals court ruling that severely restricts homeschooling and promised Friday to change the law if necessary to guarantee that parents are able to educate their children at home.--
--"Every California child deserves a quality education, and parents should have the right to decide what's best for their children," Schwarzenegger said in response to the ruling, which said children educated at home must be taught by a credentialed teacher.
-"Parents should not be penalized for acting in the best interests of their children's education," Schwarzenegger said. "This outrageous ruling must be overturned by the courts, and if the courts don't protect parents' rights then, as elected officials, we will."---My notes: The Governor supports the right of parents to homeschool their children without having teaching credentials or certification.
Here is the contact information that you can use to send a letter of thanks to the Governor of California ---- http://gov.ca.gov/interact

I heard some very basic info about this ruling, but I hadn't heard that the governor wanted it overturned. Wow, I just gained some respect for him that I never thought I would.

Good. thanks for the information. If anyone has not called/emailed or written to the leadership/courts folks in California, please do so. The ruling is preposterous. Way to go Arnold.
