Home Based Schooling
​
Families may, for a variety of reasons, elect to educate their children at home, on a home based program. Students who are in a home based program must be registered at the division office.
 
There are several annual requirements to be enrolled in a home school program for each student. Required documents and guides are provided in the documents section below.
 
  1. Complete and send in a Home School Student Registration Form  – Due August 15
  2. Submit a Written Education Plan – Due August 15
  3. Provide an end of the school year progress report - prior to June 30.  See page 11 of the E0-1R15 Home Based Education Regulations for details of the progress report.
  4. Parents are also required to maintain a summative record for the home-based learner. This summative record must be kept until the student stops a home-based education program or attains the age of 18 years.
If a student wishes to return to the public school system after being home schooled parents are required to provide the school with a copy of the student's summative record for each school year or part of a school year that the student was a home-based learner.
 
Home-based education students who are nearing high school age should pay close attention to regulations concerning early secondary level credits, available below. 
 
Parents who are contemplating a home based program are encouraged to contact the Home Schooling Coordinator, Peggy Lawson. Once a decision is made to home school, in addition to registering their child as a home-based education student parents must inform the school they are leaving so the school can plan accordingly.
