You seem to have the difficulty:
These parents are homeschooling their children.
The facility (where they presumably have to take state mandated tests and drop off homework) is funded by their local tax dollars.
Why should they send them to a private school? Isn't home school the most private kind? Why should they be subjected to exposing their children to a teaching they don't want if they choose to educate their children at home but maintain a schedule with the local government because of state law dictating that children, even those educated at home, have to come to a government building to take their tests?
I'm surprised at the contention over this, actually. Where else do we have flags flying all over every corner and every government building despite the majority opinion on the matter?
