Homemaking, homeschooling and homesteading keep my 4 boys, my husband and myself knee deep in learning and laughter! Follow along as we raise our boys by faith.

Parents and teachers are looking for leadership from @jjhorgan and @Rob_Fleming - not passing the buck and shirking responsibly - parents want and deserve options. Support DL, hybrid options and restore the $12M cut to IDL schools! #bced #bcpoli #BackToSchool

@bctf @Rob_Fleming seems like we are at odds with each other? I have a solution !? Let’s restore and increase funding to IDL and lighten the load of the classroom. I see many parents wanting to homeschool. Let’s make it easier and increase funding! #RestoreBCsIDLfundinglevels

[Chantel Peterson @ladychantel]

@SoniaFurstenau I hope this means restoring and increasing all funding for all types of education in BC? #RestoreBCsIDLfundinglevels

[Chantel Peterson @ladychantel]

@SoniaFurstenau check out this petition! Over 14000 people stand against the funding cuts that is a lot of voters if you stand for what is right and increase BCED for all children in BC! #RestoreBCsIDLfundinglevels

[Chantel Peterson @ladychantel]

@SoniaFurstenau the BCNDP cut 21% from IDL without noticed affecting over 13000 students. Does the BC Green not hold the balance of power? Show you care about BC education and use what you got! #RestoreBCsIDLfundinglevels

[Steve B FPV @FLCC77]

@SoniaFurstenau @BCGreens Will the @BCGreens also support cost saving schools such as independent schools? That hit high educational standards and save the province thousands per student?

BC Education Ministers: Restore or increase funding to Independent Distributed Learning Schools in BC - Sign the Petition! https://t.co/lvsKR2x5f9 via @CdnChange

[Nadine @makinghermama]

@SoniaFurstenau @BCGreens From this shall we understand that you don’t support the independent school system? Or do you see both providing an essential foundation for the education of BCs children? #restoreBCsIDLfundinglevels @Daniel_Davies

[Nadine @makinghermama]

@stephen_rees @SoniaFurstenau @BCGreens There are more than just wealthy privileged students outside of the public system. Independent distributed learning serves 13,000 BC children and is open to any child! #restoreBCsIDLfundinglevels

[Nadine @makinghermama]

@TruthsAboutEDU @krbisset @Wilkinson4BC By cutting $12 million from the IDL funding - conveniently enough to cover the new mentor ship program that was included days before ratification.

[Nadine @makinghermama]

@krbisset @Wilkinson4BC At the sacrifice of other students in the BC education system.

[PicadillaDaisy @PicadillaDaisy]

Yes would be nice if they updated their math skills.

[Nadine @makinghermama]

@Daniel_Davies @jjhorgan I'm so sorry for your loss Dan.

[Gabriel Linder @gabelinder]

Interesting legacy for an NDP Minister of Education to cut funding to vulnerable BC students.

[Gabriel Linder @gabelinder]

Dear @Rob_Fleming - have you had time to do the math and realize you actually cut funding to BC students (in Indepdent online schools) by $800 per child? Does it not matter because there aren’t many of them? Last I heard you were still denying you made a cut? @Daniel_Davies

[Nadine @makinghermama]

@ldobsonhughes Its a shame that the school districts don't look to the independent distributed learning system models that successfully teach thousands of students "online" each year. There are so many options - it's time to let go of pride and put the kids first.

[Nadine @makinghermama]

@kkirkup I hate that the basis of this question is under the assumption that staying home and raising and or educating children is a burden.
