Section 10. Recruitment and Enlistment of Home-schooled students in the Armed Forces
Comments on Section 10 concerning enlistment in the military by homeschoolers are at The Military Homeschooler.
Main points are:
-- creation of homeschoolers as the only educational group outside of the Tier system, specified in public law concerning military enlistment
-- identification of qualified recruits are already spelled out without pinpointing homeschoolers
-- contradictory requirements concerning third-party verifiers of "homeschooling status"
-- homeschool grad must score at the 50th %ile, which is the current standard for holders of a GED certificate
-- proposed legislation states that homeschool curriculum will be patterned after "traditional secondary school," but the current law, which wouldn't be amended, requires 12-years of traditional graded schooling
-- the third-party verification letter of a graduate's "home-school status" is not an optional choice, but would be required
