Choosing the right homeschool curriculum can feel like navigating a labyrinth, especially with strict regulations in states like New York. I share my personal journey, from filing a notice of intent to crafting an Individualized Home Instruction Plan (IHIP), to help guide you through these challenges. We explore how the Homeschool Legal Defense Association (HSLDA) can be an invaluable resource for understanding state-specific laws and ensuring compliance. Learn to manage grade-level reporting and attendance requirements with confidence, equipping yourself with the practical knowledge and resources necessary for a successful homeschooling experience.

Unlock the secrets of assessing homeschool progress with insights into submitting quarterly reports and annual assessments. Discover the requirements for standardized testing and written evaluations across different grade levels, including the specific needs of high school students. Gain clarity on subjects that must be taught from K through 12, such as patriotism and fire safety, and see how to effectively communicate your child's progress in an IHIP. We reflect on the challenges faced, express gratitude for community support, and stress the importance of sharing this podcast to inspire and support future generations.
