For Darren Jones (HSLDA Attorney), a single day of playing hooky from public school began as a spontaneous break but turned into a deep realization: there had to be a better way to learn, grow, and live.
Darren shares his experiences from becoming a homeschool student to becoming a passionate home educator. He became a legal assistant for HSLDA in 1996, and is now an Attorney and Director of Group Services.
