This volume aims to elevate the quality of scholarship and inform evidence-driven policy that better serves all children, including those homeschooled explore the rich and growing diversity within the homeschooling community through rigorous research that addresses long-standing critiques about the quality of homeschool scholarship.
Homeschooling in the United States has expanded steadily for decades, but its growth accelerated dramatically during the COVID-19 pandemic, bringing unprecedented diversity in who homeschools and why. This second volume—paired with the first from a special Journal of School Choice issue dedicated to rigorous homeschooling research—aims to elevate the quality of scholarship and inform evidence-driven policy that better serves all children, including those homeschooled explore the rich and growing diversity within the homeschooling community through rigorous research that addresses long-standing critiques about the quality of homeschool scholarship.

Contributors examine how race, ethnicity, and family context shape homeschooling motivations, featuring groundbreaking research on Latino homeschooling experiences, Black home education in the American South, and families seeking safety or special-needs support. The volume also investigates gifted learners in homeschool settings and the expanding landscape of hybrid schooling models that blend home-based and traditional approaches. Each chapter provides evidence-based insights that move beyond advocacy to deliver scholarly analysis of contemporary homeschooling practices.

This volume will be essential reading for education researchers, policymakers, and practitioners seeking to understand modern homeschooling trends. It serves graduate students in education policy, sociology of education, and school choice studies, whilst providing valuable insights for administrators developing inclusive education policies that serve all children effectively.
