LISTEN TO TLR’S LATEST PODCAST:
A mother from Buffalo, New York noticing that her children were struggling in their public education, decided to switch to homeschooling. A decision that appears to have led to phone calls from Child Protective Services (CPS), eventual attempts from CPS to take her children, and later, her arrest.
Kiarre Harris, a single mother, started researching homeschooling last November. She says her two elementary school aged children weren’t excelling at their failing Buffalo Public Schools, according to ABC7.
“I felt that the district was failing my children and that’s when I made the decision to homeschool,” she said.
Harris told ABC7 that she filed documents at Buffalo City Hall, following all the steps, informing the district of her intent to homeschool her children. According to documents she provided to 7 Eyewitness News, they’re dated December 7th and the district says it received her paperwork.
“I spoke directly to the homeschool coordinator and she told me from this point on my children were officially un-enrolled from school.”
Reportedly a week later, Harris was contacted by CPS, inquiring about her children’s absence from school.
