Scroll down to Vermont: Supreme Court Rebukes Commissioner

"Recounting the numerous instances in the record in which the juvenile court focused upon whether the home study program was “approved,” the supreme court explained that the statute does not confer authority upon the commissioner of education to “approve” programs. Vermont, according to the court, is a notice state and the commissioner’s response to notice is clearly delineated by statute."

Karen Maple is exonerated.

I consider Karen one of the movers and shakers in the homeschool battlefront She endured many hardships along the way but held her ground. To this day I admire her spunk and tenacity and for giving the VT DOE a run for their money.
