three of my grand daughters were bullied in school and were home schooled for several years.
They did really well and when they returned to the regular class room they were a little ahead of their classmates, This is through the regular school system, because here in Canada there are many kids that live at a distance from the brick and mortar schools. The schools are getting much tougher on the bullies this past year, thank goodness.
One of the things they found helpful was The Khan Academy. It is really good for helping to learn. Watch this youtube video. I really think this should be used in more class rooms.

You could also Google 'Home schooling groups' in your area, that is what mt Daughters did to find others and get answers for their area.
