We will send you a customized PDF or XLSX attendance form on enrollment. You will log the days and total number of hours your child is in school. You must keep complete and accurate attendance records that document the minimum compulsory attendance requirements required by law. Attendance records are due at the end of your child's term or current grade, whichever comes first.

You only need to report your child's attendance at the end of your child's school year. You are welcome to send us your child's attendance more often. We have parents that send it to us monthly, quarterly, and biannually. Just keep one record (per child) and update it throughout the school year.

Private school students must maintain regular attendance as defined in Florida Rule 6A-1.09512 to be deemed in compliance with Florida's compulsory attendance laws. Recording both days and hours of attendance specifically documents that your child is meeting the state's requirements.

No. You only need to record the total number of instructional hours for the day.

No. Your child's daily instructional hours may vary, but your child must meet the required net number of instructional hours by the end of the school term.

As a supervisor of your child's education, you decide what counts as a school day. Field trips, classes at museums and science centers, library activities, co-op classes, and online lessons, to name a few, all count. Instruction does not have to take place in the home.

Maybe. If you are enrolling your child in our academic program, you will need to keep records for your child's portfolio review. If you are enrolling your child in our diploma program and your child is seeking credits by portfolio, you will need to keep records for credit verification. If you are enrolling your child in our standard program, you do not necessarily need to keep records, but we recommend you do. You may find them helpful at some point, especially should your child enter or return to a public or traditional private school.

You may need to keep a portfolio if your child is enrolled in our academic program or diploma program, but otherwise no. This said, we encourage you to do so. We especially recommend you keep a portfolio documenting Kindergarten, since successful completion of Kindergarten is required for entry into public school first grade. We also encourage you to keep a portfolio documenting high school coursework, since some colleges and universities require applicants who complete a home school program or graduate from a non-accredited high school to submit portfolios (and/or transcripts) to be considered for admission.

Our attendance record is only for documenting attendance at our school, but you may include a note under the Notes section if you want to include your child's attendance at his former school as part of the 180 day requirement.

No, but please send us your child's attendance and re-enroll. It's common for students to have less than the required number of hours and days of attendance with mid-term grade changes, but your child must have maintained regular attendance to be eligible for re-enrollment.

Your child's attendance record will be due one year from your child's term start date or on grade completion, whichever comes first. We'll email you a reminder near the end of your child's term.

Provided your child maintained regular attendance, you are welcome to re-enroll to establish a new school term.

Attendance records may be mailed, emailed, or attached to one of our submission forms.
