Somebody do this: Uber/TaskRabbit for homeschool teachers. I'd love to get together with ~10 sets of parents, have everyone kick in $15-20k/year each year, and maybe a place to host classes, and hire a bright, motivated teacher. The company would provide the core logistics/materials for passing the Common Core tests, and the teachers and parents would have the flexibility to design around that. It'd be cheaper than private school and less child abuse than subjecting your kids to the public school system.
