Great post and I truly believe that it's the right decision. How long has the public school system been in need of a complete revamp? There are also so many things that can happen to kids at school and in some cases it can scar kids for life. I remember vividly things that happened to me and I am pretty sure many other readers also can.

In today's society you have so many options and other ways to educate your kids. You can use so many online learning tools plus online courses with the majority of them free.

There was a really popular Ted video you should check out about a young kid who was home schooled called Homeschooling makes me happy:

Although I said it was the right decision I also think it's a brave move and should only be done if you can really put the time in. I travel to different countries all the time working as an ESL teacher, so my daughter who is eleven now also gets her share of homeschooling and after teaching all day sometimes it is the last thing I need to come home to.

Good Luck to you and your family:)
