I need more hours in the day…

Published by throwingmarshmallows at 1:26 am under Homeschooling in Va

Lots of interesting stuff going on in the Virginia homeschool community lately so I have been spending a lot of my online time on my email lists…which means that I have not had much time to post here!

For those of you in Virginia, be sure to check out the new information on the VaHomeschoolers website. There have been some issues with some superintendents questioning the “description of curriculum” that homeschoolers need to submit with with their NOI and it looks like Nelson County is going to start offering K12 to homeschoolers for free…the catch? You have to put your kids back in public school. Needless to say, VaHomeschoolers will be keeping our eye on developments…

Read the VaHomeschoolers Legislative Report

Read All About Curriculum Descriptions - guidelines on what to include with your NOI

Read Filing Your NOI - more information about what is required

And if you want to stay up to date on homeschool happenings in Virginia, be sure to join the VaHomeschoolers Announce list!

    Thanks Stephanie! Since I do live in VA, this post is quite enlightening.

    I hope all this stuff gets resolved soon. I’ve been on the Ecclectic Board reading up on the Henrico issues…I’m in Richmond, though, and since my dd is in K, I don’t anticipate any problems this year. I am keeping my eyes open, because who knows what next year will hold!

    Thanks for helping to keep everyone informed!

    Wow, I feel pretty lucky after reading those NOI requirements. Illinois has the k12 thing here too and has been careful not to call it homeschooling.
