Homeschooling in New York? Stay compliant in the country’s most-regulated homeschool state — without the panic.
New York’s § 100.10 asks six things of you each year: a Letter of Intent, the IHIP, four quarterly reports, an annual assessment, the required subjects, and your instructional hours. This kit walks you through every one and hands you a fill-in template for each — so you’re compliant and have the paper trail to prove it.
What’s Inside
- Plain-English guide to New York’s 6 requirements + a one-page compliance calendar
- Letter of Intent template (NYC & rest-of-state addressing)
- IHIP template — the Individualized Home Instruction Plan NY parents dread, made fill-in-the-blank
- Required-subjects checklist by grade band (1-6, 7-8, 9-12, K-12 annual)
- Quarterly Report template (hours, material covered, grade/narrative, under-80% explanation)
- Instructional Hours Log (track toward 900 / 990 hours)
- Annual Narrative Evaluation outline + the grade-by-grade testing rules explained
- FAQ (NYC vs. rest of state, deficient IHIPs, the 33rd-percentile rule) + official resources
