What sort of people home school their children?

Hi, I'm an Australian teacher and we don't really have home schooling here. It is pretty much frowned upon too.
I was wondering what sort of people home school their children in America and why?
What sorts of academic results do these children get and how does this effect their social skills?

Can a student transfer to another school right in the middle of a semester?

If a student moves to another city during a semester, can the student just transfer to a school in that city? I know that students usually transfer after a semester has passed, and then start the new semester at that school. But can a student transfer to another school district in the middle of a semester? Thanks.
