These programs must now operate through local education providers like school districts or charters, with every student required to formally declare their intent to homeschool. Key debates center on whether oversight will fall entirely to the provider or if private contractors can handle enrollment and curriculum. The changes are already rattling families and programs—some have pivoted to private pay or paused operations altogether, with one CEO citing the新规 as the reason they’re shutting down for the year. Board members are pushing hard for rigorous audits and ensuring homeschooled students receive an education equal to public school standards, while also wary of programs luring students away from subsidized public offerings. A final vote is set for October, but the board is first seeking public input to shape the rules before they’re finalized.
