General Information on Home Schooling in New York City

The Central Office of Home Schooling welcomes you to the 2024-2025 school year. The information below will provide you with instructions to register your child (or continue) home school education for the 2024-2025 school year. 

Homeschooling is an education model in which parents educate their children at home instead of sending them to a traditional public or private school. In homeschool, the parent or guardian is responsible for the education of their child. They choose the subjects to be taught (based on a child’s age and ability) as well as the curriculum and methods of teaching, plan the schedule, and teach or facilitate instruction. Homeschooling is independent, parent-directed, and parent-funded education.
