Summary
The purpose of this bill is to clarify that a student who is home schooled may not be classified as habitually absent. The bill requires the parent of a child who is to be home schooled to notify a county superintendent of intent to home school, not the person who provides the home schooling along with an assurance that certain subjects will be taught. The bill removes the requirement that the person who provides the home schooling instruction have a high school diploma. The bill removes the requirement that the person who provides the home schooling instruction have an outline of a plan for the home schooling instruction for the ensuing year. The bill permits a parent to administer the required nationally normed standardized test. The bill provides that a student has made acceptable academic progress if it is within or above the national average range, or if below that average then the student must show improvement from the previous year. The bill removes the requirement that a certified teacher and the parent of a home schooled child must mutually agree on an alternative academic assessment of proficiency. The bill requires home schooled students who fail to make acceptable academic progress for two consecutive years be evaluated for learning disabilities. The bill requires academic assessments be kept for three years.
