Hi Beach boy,
We are in the process of selling our house Washington and intend on moving to Puna hopefully by August. I home school in Washington, and intend to continue once we move. With that being said, I have gathered the information necessary in filing an intent. I hope you find it useful.
Here are the requirements for home schooling in Hawaii.
File a notice of intent with the principal of the public school the child would otherwise be required to attend before starting to home school (not required annually); notify this same principal within 5 days after ending home school. This is a very simple form.
I have also included the following “rules”
Curriculum must”; be structured and based on educational objectives as well as the needs of the child, be cumulative and sequential, provide a range of up-to-date knowledge and needed skills, and take into account the interests, needs, and abilities of the child".
Maintain a record of the planned curriculum
Administer standardized achievement test of parent’s choice in grades 3, 5, 8, and 10; submit annual report (of child’s progress) to local principal comprised of either: 1) standardized test results, or 2) written evaluation by certified teacher, or 3) written evaluation by parent.
Best Regards,
Heather
