Dear Superintendent Grimmel: I

Dear Superintendent Grimmel: I have received your letter asking why my daughter Greta is not attending your school system. I want to try and answer that. I would like to avoid conflict between us by saying that Greta will be attending a private or alternative school, but the truth is that she will not be attending any school. I would also like to be able to say that my wife Jane and I are not aware that Greta must attend school by law. But we are. We are also aware that the State has penalties in such cases. But we don’t care. Een apart standpunt op het gebied van educatie maar er valt iets voor te zeggen.
