I am new to homeschooling. I will be homeschooling two of my kids next year and I am trying to find an umbrella school to register with. I am having trouble understanding the difference between option 2 and option 3 listed here http://www.hslda.org/laws/default.asp?State=TN.
Option2: Establish and operate a home school in association with a church-related school
Option3:Operate as a satellite campus of a church-related school
Is it the CRS's decision on this or the state's? I am confused.

Thanks for the answers. I am still a bit confused. I have found several CRS that I am interested in. Some of them will say we operate as a "satellite" so you are not technically considered a homeschooler while some just say they are a class IV school. So, my question is while I am researching schools do I need to ask if the school operates under option 2 or option 3 according to the TN laws? And who makes the decision on which option the crs qualifies for?
For example, Home Life Academy states they operate as a satellite so they fall under option 3. However, I do not believe they even have a true campus. So, what distinguishes them from option 2? I hope I am not confusing you, now.
Here are three of my choices as of right now.
http://www.bethlehembaptistchurch.org (I think they are option 2)
http://www.homelifeacademy.com (They say satellite, so option3)
http://www.riversidechristianacademy.org/ ( I would say option 3)
I just want to be sure that I meet the requirements for either option.
Thanks so much for your help.
