Imagine bullying someone because they read a book.
They should be thankful the school didn't punish the class for not doing the assignment.
I was home schooled,* and occasionally I wish I had gone to public school, because I missed out on a lot of cultural touchstones, but then I'm reminded that kids are fucking horrible to other kids at any sign of differentness, and I was a fat, nerdy, gay bookworm, so, yeah, I'm good with the way things shook out. Haha
*Got a great education, not a religious nutjob, was not raised by right wing zealots.
Home schooled kids on average are smarter. Public schools tend to lower their standards to get a certain percentage of students to pass.
Plus I bet your teacher was hot.
Funny story, my dad was a carnie for a brief time, and then I acted a good bit as a kid in those true crime shows from the late 90s and early 00s. On both occasions I had a tutor/teacher instead of genuine/standard homeschooling. I got a shittier education both of those times, but both times I had the fucking hottest teachers. The first I didn't realize was a gay crush, because I was too young, but the second I was old enough to realize what the feelings were, but not out enough to myself to actually admit them to myself. But my God, so sexy. I definitely understand the "crush on teacher" thing haha
