====================================================================== From the HSLDA E-lert Service... ====================================================================== New Hampshire: HSLDA Challenges Absurd Ruling in State Supreme Court Dear HSLDA Members and Friends: Home School Legal Defense Association recently filed a friend of the court brief in a New Hampshire custody case because the trial court's decision could detrimentally affect homeschoolers. The New Hampshire Family Court ordered a homeschool girl into public school, even though it acknowledged that she was excelling both academically and socially while being homeschooled. The court applied the "best interests of the child" standard and implied that homeschooling is unable to adequately meet the needs of adolescent children. The homeschool family is being represented by an Alliance Defense Fund attorney and has appealed the decision to the New Hampshire Supreme Court. HSLDA Staff Attorney Michael Donnelly, join by CHENH, filed a brief to the New Hampshire Supreme Court explaining the numerous advantages of homeschooling and summarizing the overwhelming amount of evidence showing that homeschooling is perfectly capable of meeting the developmental needs of adolescent children. For more information or to read a copy of the brief, visit here http://www.hslda.org/elink.asp?id=8347 Thank you for your support and for all you do in support for homeschooling freedom in the Granite State. Standing with you, Michael P. Donnelly, Esq. HSLDA Staff Attorney ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -> Who are the nation's best lobbyists? We don't know that this has ever been determined; but we do know that HSLDA's Federal Relations Department is the only national organization lobbying on behalf of homeschoolers on Capitol Hill.
