As children grow, God's Word, the Bible (John 17:3), will be the textbook for instruction for their standard of conduct (Gal. 5:22,23). Daily Bible reading (Josh. 1:8) will be reinforced through publications such as LEARN FROM THE GREAT TEACHER for young students, and QUESTIONS YOUNG PEOPLE ASK--ANSWERS THAT WORK for pre-teens and teenagers. A wide variety of other publications assist families to apply Bible standards of conduct in their homes. Children who resist such fine direction are patiently and kindly assisted by parents, as well as being provided association at local places of worship, where the local congregation provides specific spiritual guidance, using Matt. 18 where applicable

More quotes:

New System School, Inc. is a non-profit private school for children of Jehovah's Witnesses. 

New System School, Inc., while recommending social awareness, does not itself adhere to evolution, nationalism, racism, worldly philosophy, pagan festivities, or excessive competition.

in social, political, cultural, economic, and other areas, they will also be taught Christian neutrality. New System School, Inc., will not support political involvement, revolutions, or religious intervention in affairs of governments. It is our belief that a Christian's purpose in life is to glorify God (Col. 3:23, 24)(Heb. 13:5)(Rev. 15:4), and direct others to His Kingdom. (Mt. 24:14) This heavenly government is the total solution to mankind's problems, and living by Bible standards of Christian conduct will prevent a multitude of disasters in the lives of our students. (Prov. 22:3)

[James Thomas Rook Jr.]

I home schooled my children one year while waiting for a new Contract Assignment, and had to register with the State of North Carolina.

The name of the School was the "Lazarus Long Science Academy", which is an inside joke, that perhaps I am the only one who ever understood it.

For those who don't know that this exists, here's an email from the new system school where JWs can homeschool their children using their own publications.

On their website they say they are not sponsored by any "local" congregation of Jehovah Witness. They say they are incorporated in Missouri. The Missouri Business Registrar’s office shows two corporate registrations for New System School. One incorporation was forfeited. The other was dissolved. Will keep looking.
