– Homeschooling is a term typically used to describe the form of education where parents educate their own children at home with little to no contact with public school education. The purpose of this study is to gather information on the public opinion of homeschooling in Sarajevo Canton, Bosnia and Herzegovina, as well as to see how the COVID-19 pandemics affected this opinion. For this purpose, a survey was conducted and, as a result, information on the topic is gathered. The general opinion of the public leaned more towards the negative end when all the results were summarized. Homeschooling, in general, is not a term that people are familiar with and accepting of in t h e region of Sarajevo Canton, Bosnia and Herzegovina. Additionally, the COVID-19 pandemic has not had a positive influence on the opinion of the homeschooling.

This article identifies public school education as a community affair which requires the talents of lawyers, social science scholars, and other kinds of people. Since public education is described as a community affair, diversity in student body and faculty is recommended as a way of gathering essential opinions on how education may benefit all individuals as well as the community. Grassroots strategies for achieving effective social action are discussed.

[In April 1954 we reprinted from The Seer a paper by Rev. Ralph T. Wolfgang entitled “I Would Choose the Residential School.” Later we had an opportunity to publish the manuscript from William Taylor, Jr., which appears here, but which at that time, for good editorial reasons, (not on the grounds of the particular position expressed in the article) we did not publish. We take this occasion to say as we have said before: We welcome varying or opposing views on moot questions; we do not discriminate among manuscripts on the grounds of the views expressed on a debatable question, provided the views do in our opinion contribute to the intelligent thinking on a subject and are expressed for no other purpose than for the information and enlightenment of the reader. However, we were unaware until more recently that Mr. Taylor's article was in fact the other of two opposite views presented as a pair on one and the same occasion—a meeting of an Inter-Branch Conference of the Pennsylvania Association for the Blind. Had we understood that fact we would have presented both views together or in successive issues. In the circumstances we are pleased to do the next best thing at this late date by presenting the other half of the discussion, supporting public school education for blind children.— Editor.]

“This is no time to have public school education misrepresented as a routine, lockstep, mass movement.”
