OK -  I can take some pointers from you on this, because I hope my kids demonstrate the maturity to enroll at Sheldon in HS in a few years (we shall see). Obviously I am going to pay anyway, but sincerely believe more options will help 4j do a better job. I have coached Kidsports BBALL for 2 years (didn't do it this year) at Bertha Holt and know the kind of kids we are dealing with in Public School, and how they are disadvantaged (I don't think one of my 4th graders had their original parents in the home), but the monopoly thing does not seem to be working, From my perspective the tax thing is simply a reflection on the arrogance of the government who rules from the Ivory Tower, if they would engage a bit more with the community perhaps there would not be so much animosity withing the Christian Home-school Community.
