Logic by advocates of the government schools

The HSLDA links a newspaper guest column with apparently this logic:

Problem: the government schools are shuffling likely dropouts over to the "homeschool" category to reduce their reported dropout rates.  (what did you think would happen with Ted Kennedy's "Most Children Left Behind" bill?  Honesty?  Please!)

Solution: regulate homeschoolers more.

I'm thinking that perhaps a better way of dealing with the situation would be mandatory ethics training for government school administrators, and perhaps also mandatory classes in at least informal logic.  Of course, the latter might not help classroom management, as kids would start to figure out what was really going on.  Or maybe.....they already have.
