Purcellville, VA-In a new study released today the National Home Education Research Institute (NHERI) estimates there were over 2 million children being homeschooled in the United States in 2010. "The growth of the modern homeschool movement has been remarkable," said Michael Smith, president of HSLDA. "Just 30 years ago there were only an estimated 20,000 homeschooled children," he added.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau (2008) there were an estimated 54 million K-12 children in the U.S. in spring 2010, which means homeschoolers account for nearly 4% of the school-aged population, or 1 in 25 children.
