So, Tullahoma has a large and growing population of home-schooled students. So do Franklin and Coffee Counties.

Why can’t they play on school sports teams? Why can’t they participate in school band and choir programs? Why can’t they just take a math class or a science lab?

Their parents pay the same taxes those in school do. They pay for the facilities and the teachers’ salaries. Why are they being excluded from using the resources for which they are paying? And given that many home-school because they cannot get the integrated religion/school experience they want for their kids, isn’t this religious discrimination?
