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.

- 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
