Homeschooling

[Devanna]

A recent study suggests that homeschooled students are actually more politically tolerant than publicly schooled children. A Brief Review of Does Homeschooling or Private Schooling Promote Political Intolerance? Evidence from a Christian University by Albert Cheng | NHERI News | Research

Quotes from the article: "...none of those persons proactively oppositional to homeschooling or promoting significant state control over homeschooling offer any empirically based evidence that home education is bad for the children, families, neighborhoods, or the collective good."

"...this study adds new insight into the political tolerance outcomes of homeschooled children—a topic that, to the best of my knowledge, has not been empirically investigated until now. Specifically, … those [college students] with more exposure to homeschooling relative to public schooling tend to be more politically tolerant.”

If I remember correctly they did their research at Biola, homeschoolers who go there would be more likely to be open-minded in the first place than say the ones that go to Patrick Henry or Bob Jones. I'm hoping they eventually expand the scope of their research to other schools because in my mind this is too narrow to make any definite conclusions about the political tolerance of homeschoolers.
