About Class Dismissed: Education and the Rise of Homeschooling in America
Class Dismissed will be the first full-length documentary devoted to exploring homeschooling as an alternative to the industrial school model. This film will show how homeschooling is not only rapidly growing in popularity, but how it crosses all social and economic boundaries and covers a wide spectrum of the population. It will answer the questions that many people have about homeschooling and break down the myths that surround it.
From home study and kitchen table math, to perpetual recess and park days, Class Dismissed, follows the stories of three ordinary American families in their quest to educate their children outside the school system.
As they each struggle to discover what path is best for their children, the social ramifications of their choices come to light, family dynamics are revealed and they come to realize that homeschooling is not just an educational choice, but also a lifestyle choice that affects the very heart of the American family.
Class Dismissed: Education and the Rise of Homeschooling in America will challenge its viewers to take a fresh look at what it means to be educated, and offer up a radical new way of thinking about the process of education.

On 3 Story Films’ blog, Jeremy wrote: “The second half of 2010 was pretty busy for 3StoryFilms. We wrapped up three days of shooting at the Homeschooling Association of California conference in Sacramento and recorded several insightful interviews with homeschooling families and movement leaders including Diane Flynn Keith, Linda Dobson and Sandra Dodd.”
I’m thrilled to be in the wonderful company of Diane Flynn Keith and Sandra Dodd in this documentary, and to have worked with Jeremy Stuart and Roy Robles. It really was as comfortable as a talk at the kitchen table with homeschooling friends, just with water instead of coffee; thanks, guys!
This looks great! Can't wait to see it.
