Home Instruction
is designed for students with handicapping conditions, who are in need of instructional services while they are confined to their homes because of a medical, orthopedic and/or serious emotional condition. This category provides instruction for students who are unable to attend their primary educational program in a school setting. The Home Instruction program follows the curriculum as prescribed in the students' most recent primary educational program, with modifications as appropriate. As a result of this temporary educational service, the homebound students are able to return to school with little or no loss of educational progress.

  Our Mission Statement
  As developed by the School Leadership Team.
  • Students, parents, and the Home Instruction School Leadership Team will work collaboratively to ensure that each child, commensurate with his/her skills, will maximize achievement and address performance standards.
  • Students who receive home instruction will become productive members of their communities and society. Home Instruction Schools will continue to develop and implement procedures that ensure successful transition from the student's school of affiliation to Home Instruction Schools and then back to the school of affiliation.
