When Parents Design a New School Path for Rob
Robert F. Bundy recalls five years of an alternate education for his son Rob at Jamesville DeWitt Middle School in DeWitt New York. The plan paired three days of school with one day of building trade apprenticeship and another of community service. The couple faced questions about credentials social development and weekend work yet believed independent study and competency exams could replace traditional classroom time. Over time Rob became highly independent with a solid academic record and five years of professional trade training while parents note the approach served as one of many educational options for society to consider.
