Parents interested in providing a Home Education Program for their children must notify the Department of Education and Early Childhood Development of their intention before the commencement of the school year.
It is the parents’ responsibility to maintain academic records of their home education program. It is recommended that parents keep a portfolio of their child’s work. The Department of Education and Early Childhood Development does not provide credits or graduation certificates to students who have been home schooled. Post-secondary institutions and/or employers determine whether the student’s documentation and portfolio meets their requirements for admission or employment. If, or when, a home-schooled child returns to the public school system, the School Board will determine the student’s grade level.
