Students who are enrolled in a public cyber-charter school school have requirements similar to those described on this page. There are no medical requirements for students who are privately tutored. Students who are too young to be registered with their district as home educated students do not have to comply with these requirements. NOTE: This page applies to students who are homeschooled under PA's Home Education Law. If you need clarification, I suggest you call the homeschooling liaison at the PDE. There are several medical requirements for home educated students in Pennsylvania. There is considerable variation in how school districts handle this part of the home education law, and also considerable variation in how homeschoolers handle it. I find this to be the part of the law that has the widest range of interpretations in actual practice, therefore it is difficult to give clear guidelines. Every one of the 501 school districts seems to do it differently. I offer here several approaches and opinions - you will have to figure out what's right for your family - what you are willing to give, and what your district will accept. If you have problems with your district, see my district problems page. This web page by Pauline Harding for Art Nurk.Ĭontents may be copied if credit is given. I might be wrong! I am not a lawyer! Your circumstances may be different! This page, and others on this site, are not intended as legal advice. School districts vary considerably in their interpretation of the home education law. Please double-check legal information with appropriate sources. Many people, including me, will give opinions on the PA homeschooling law.Įveryone should read the law for themselves, read a few opinions about it,Īnd decide for themselves what approach makes sense for their family. Please take the information you find useful from these pages and ignore the rest. Homeschoolers have a lot of choices available.
