Andrew Firestone & His Wife Are Making the Most of Homeschooling Their Kids
With the coronavirus pandemic continuing to rage across the country, many counties and cities transitioned to virtual learning to kick off the new school year. Parents have been teaching their kids at home for a few months, but one former Bachelor is trying his best to the most of it.
Andrew Firestone shared a picture on his Instagram Story on Wednesday of a sign outside his house that reads "The Firestone Center For Children Who Can't Read Good And Wanna Learn To Do Other Stuff Good Too."
He captioned it, "Yay 2020!"

The sign pays homage to the popular film "Zoolander" and the eponymous "Derek Zoolander Center For Kids Who Can't Read Good And Wanna Learn To Do Other Stuff Good Too."
The poster contrasts a "resignation letter" Andrew’s wife Ivana Firestone wrote in May jokingly talking about how hard it is to teach their three kids at home.
It reads, "To Whom It May Concern: Please accept this letter of resignation for my position as Kindergarten, 3rd and 5th Grade homeschool teacher. Please see the following reasons for my sudden and surprising departure."

These "reasons" include being "unable to keep Shane from taking off his shirt during his daily Zoom call," as well as "There was no notification that I would also need to assist in Anja's hip-hop dance class."
Additionally, she learned the hard way that "a glass of Chardonnay is inappropriate in the classroom."
Andrew and Ivana have three kids: Adam, 11, Anja, 9, and Shane, 6.

Best of luck with the new school year!
