Neither bus transportation nor school is actually free, Both actually are based on accepting the idea that it is okay to force your neighbor to pay for these benefit. This sets a pattern of social behavior of coveting your neighbor's goods through Benefactors who exercise authority one over the other which is unacceptable to Christ.
There are after school programs that your child can join.	Under-funded schools may not have the materials or they might have to cut some programs
These after school programs can be provided by networking congregations and gathering with other homeschoolers with far more control, regularity, moral supervision and practicality.
