Does the law specify any promotion requirements, testing or record keeping by the home study program?
The law does not specify any promotion requirements. However, it does stipulate that an “appropriate” nationally standardized testing program be administered in consultation with a person trained in the administration and interpretation of norm-referenced tests. The law further states that the student must be evaluated at least every three years. National-norm assessments must be given at the end of grades 3, 6, 9, and 12. Additionally, the records of such tests must be retained for three years.
