Homeschool requests overload state government website

--- Quote ---RALEIGH – Wednesday evening, the website for the N.C Department of Administration’s Notice of Intent to Establish a Home School was not available due to volume.

The website around 9:20 p.m. read, “The system is not currently available due to an overwhelming submission of Notices of Intent (NOI). It will be back online as soon as possible. We apologize for any inconvenience as we work to process NOIs as quickly as possible.”
--- End quote ---

Unless the normal volume of notifications is close to the capacity of the computer system and SW, this signifies a significant increase in homeschooling in NC. I realize that a lot of parents realized, with the recent/current shutdown, that they could educate their own children, but it's still a significant, life-changing even, step to commit to homeschooling long-term. I thought it likely there would be some increase in homeschooling, more than the usual long-term growth, but it looks like my guess was too low.
