And I wasn't trying to contradict your source either.

Regardless, the guy wasn't some leftwinger. He supports private school vouchers and home schooling, jut regulated home schooling. So your attempt to ad hominem him, thus discrediting what he says, fails anyway.
I discredit the school simply for being leftist - just as I would discredit your link if it had been from Patrick Henry College, a college created mainly for kids that had been homeschooled (I think Patrick Henry would have a fit if he knew his name was being sullied by being applied to such a school).

A panda walks into a cafe. He orders a sandwich, eats it, then draws a gun and fires two shots in the air.

"Why?" asks the confused waiter, as the panda makes toward the exit. The panda produces a badly punctuated wildlife manual and tosses it over his shoulder.

"I'm a panda," he says at the door. "Look it up."

The waiter turns to the relevant entry and, sure enough, finds an explanation.

"Panda. Large black-and-white bear-like mammal, native to China. Eats, shoots and leaves."
