Extractions: Journal-Bulletin Staff Writer PORTSMOUTH - On a brisk spring morning, as the Porter family heads towards a bluff overlooking Narragansett Bay for a family photograph, you have the feeling Norman Rockwell is setting the scene. With their puppy Molly Brown yipping in the background, Craig Porter, 50, puts his arm around Betsy, 38, Andrew, 8, and Scott, 6, stand in front of their parents, smiling shyly, eight blue eyes peering toward the mainland, their blond and reddish hair flapping with the breeze. Craig and Betsy Porter insist that they, particularly Betsy, always aspired to the average American family lifestyle suggested by family portrait. They resisted, they say, as the signs became increasingly obvious that their children would dictate otherwise. * Journal Bulletin Photo by KRIS CRAIG CRAIG AND BETSY PORTER: They tried tutors for their two boys, Andrew and Scott, with little success. Last month, the Porters received permission from the Portsmouth School committee to educate Andrew and Scott at their Prudence Island home this year. The action was hardly radical, with an estimated 120,000 to 260,000 students educated at home nationwide; 76 children in Rhode Island and about 200 in Massachusetts are in approved home education programs.
