I hear that NY requires 900 hours of instruction for the lower grades
and 990 for upper grades will using sonlight alone help me reach this goal
or will I need to supplement?

thank you for your advice

That question assumes you're stuck doing only one grade per year. If you can't fill the 900 hours with a single grade, just start on the next one. Problem solved!

Just saw this...I use Sonlight in NY. You will have no problem getting enough hours. Remember you also can count feild trips and any other educational activity (computers, videos,gym time, plays.....) towards your 900 hours.
