The Northwood Advent Christian Church is hosting another in its series of winter community events with a Movie Night Sunday, January 12, at the church,113 School St. This event is free and is open to everyone. It will start at 6pm. The feature film will be “Facing The Giants”, a film about a high school football team that overcomes adversity to become champions.

The church has been a part of the Northwood community for over 130 years. This is an invitation for you, our neighbors to come and check us out and see what God is doing. We are happy to invite you back to church. Join us January 12 at 6pm and every Sunday at 10 am for worship service. Watch for more free community events coming up through the winter.

Letter

Free State and Other Homeschoolers

 

Epsom resident Nancy Heath raises a question about the tax impact of Free Staters.  She says “many are homeschoolers. What services, tax credits might these activists want from our school districts?”

 

NH does indeed have an education tax credit program which enables homeschoolers to receive a scholarship of up to $750 for parents whose income is less than 300% of the federal poverty level. The scholarship fund is raised by private donations. Very few homeschoolers will actually end up with any of this money.

 

In addition, most homeschoolers, especially Free Staters, do not have their children participate in public school activities or ask for any services from the public schools. Furthermore, school districts are not required to provide special education services for homeschooled children. The cost to taxpayers for homeschoolers is therefore negligible.

 

On the other hand, homeschoolers will pay far more in property tax and spend more on their children’s education than they will ever receive in tax credits. In Northwood, for example, the average homeowner pays more than $4,000 annually in property tax, most of which goes to pay for public schools. Northwood in fact appropriates some $12 million to educate some 700 students, or about $17,000 for each public school student.

 

Homeschoolers pay for all children’s public schooling and then for their own children’s education. Consequently, the more homeschoolers there are, the lower the taxes and the more tax money that can be spent on each public school student.
