not totally inclusive, just a few

Even then, I wouldn’t expect to see a huge number of them, as the percentage of students who are homeschooling today is still relatively small (approximately 1% of the school-age population is homeschooled). Given those small numbers, I wouldn’t think that 1/2 of our politicians or businessmen would be from the homeschool ranks (but I wouldn’t be surprised to see more than 5-10%, either).

The twins who play on the show “The Suite Life of Zach and Cody” are also homeschooled.

There are others, but those are the only ones coming to mind at the moment.

Jason Taylor: defensive end for Miami Dolphins

Tim Tebow: quarterback who helped lead Flordia Gators to

National victory in 2007

-when spotlighted to name high school on television he says: “Homeschooled. Thanks, Mom!”

Comparing oneself to “famous people” is not what home schooling is all about.

It is about individuals, and personal excellence with humility.

Home school graduates are often your entrepreneurs, small business owners, self employed workers, and so on.

Check with Patrick Henry College, and see what fields their graduates are in, and for more statistics on home schooled adults, and young people go to http://www.nheri.org/
