We are a military family that just moved back to PA after 4 years overseas. My daughter is 17 years old, in 10th grade and has an IEP. In an effort to be brief, I will leave out many details and simply ask questions. If by leaving out the details, it raises questions please feel free to ask.
Since we arrived at the end of April, do we need to comply with PA homeschooling requirements for this school year?
Could someone please clarify what "until the age of 17 years in the compulsory school age law means? The law states, "From time the child enters school, ´which shall not be later than the age of eight (8) years, until the age of seventeen (17) years´
Since my daughter turned 17 at the beginning of 2008, if we continue homeschooling for the remaining two years of high school, are we required to follow the homeschooling requirements for PA?
While it sounds like we are trying to get out of following rules, we are not, we just want to know what is required. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
