This site contains information about the Home Education Program. The materials provided will give you the necessary information to initiate and maintain a Home Education Program for your child(ren).
Florida Statute 1002.41 requires that you notify the District Superintendent or designee in writing of your intent to initiate a Home Education Program. In order to register you will need to complete and mail your Letter of Intent.
