Homeschooling With An IEP?
A MyAutismTeam Member asked a question 💭

Does anyone home school there child. Is there consideration for his IEP? We are thinking of taking my 9 yr old grandson out of the school he is attending, where he retreats into his own world 99% of the time, and having me homeschool him. He is a bright boy, but needs 1:1 direction at all times. In his district, a 1:1 aide is not used appropriately, the teachers seen to have them help in the class generally. Any advice or experiences would be a help. Thanks!

Whether or not a homeschooled child is eligible to receive IEP services really varies by location. Where I live, children who homeschool independently are not eligible for services but those who homeschool through a virtual charter or district independent study program can.
