Hi
I hope someone can help me with this, I am moving to pa area in the next week
I am planning on homeschooling my son when I get there, what I wanted to know is getting started, I have all of my materials, I am going w Abeka curriculum, this is what he had in his school that he was attending, I did go to the Chap website and I see that there were forms that I should have submitted to the school district, so what will I do since the date has passed
Can anyone give me advice on what to do so that I am following the right steps
Thanks
Chijas

Re: Help getting started
I believe the deadline only applies to continuing homeschooling. If it's your first time homeschooling in PA, any time before you start homeschooling should be fine:
