User:Maxeto0910/Hybrid homeschooling

Hybrid homeschooling or flex-school is a form of education in which children split their time between homeschool and a more traditional schooling environment like a school. It is a comparatively unpopular education model that can mainly be found in the United States. During the COVID-19 pandemic, this was sometimes enforced by schools.

Motivations
A commonly cited reason for choosing this model is that parents are not sure whether they can give their children a comprehensive and neutral education at home or cannot devote themselves to homeschooling full-time due to time constraints or excessive stress. Some families also want their children to socialize with other children and find that schools are better suited for this purpose because social exchange does not only take place occasionally, but is an everyday experience there. Health reasons can also play a role in why children cannot attend a school regularly and are at least partially homeschooled.
