For the Crompton siblings, school begins in the comfort of own living room, after they eat breakfast and do their morning chores. By 9 a.m., the two sets of twins meet their mother, Linda, for a Bible reading and prayer time. Then they’re back on their own, reviewing their tasks in the assignment book she creates for them. Correct pages 178 and 180 in grammar. Study Lesson 14 for vocabulary. Move on to the next section in math drills. The Cromptons are among 37 families in Lowell who have opted to home-school their children, a minority group of 56 children in a low-income district of roughly 14,000 students.
