Classes that are offered are subject to availability. Each child’s learning plan is developed by the homeschool parent, student and partnership liaison. Parents retain their homeschool status by engaging in non-core classes. These classes are also considered nonessential by the Michigan Department of Education. Homeschool parents teach core academics in the home. Enrollment in program is closed a week before the semesters begins for scheduling purposes.
Transportation
Parents are required to provide student transportation to and from classes offered due to the various locations of the partnership courses.
Attendance
Attendance is taken regularly in the physical class setting by the partnership liaison (Teacher of Record) and absences should be limited to necessities such as illness, funerals, etc…
