A Republican-backed bill in South Carolina would offer tax credits as high as $1,000 per child to parents who homeschool their children.

Sponsored by a group of 21 Republican lawmakers, the Senate Bill 933 is currently being considered in the state Senate Finance Committee. The one-page legislation defines “home school” as “a home, residence, or location where a parent or legal guardian teaches one or more children.”
