and other alerts

Changes to the homeschooling code have been passed. The highlights include the codification of the Jeter Memo, no more baccalaureate degree requirement, elimination of a hard deadline for registering, parents can now 'conduct' homeschooling instead of doing it all themselves, no more declaring college or general track.  Check http://TnHomeEd.com/49-6-3050.html for the current code. Check http://TnHomeEd.com/49-6-3050-Compare.html for a comparison of the old vs. the new code. We'll be updating the non-lawyer explanations of the various options in the near future. Thank you for your patience.

Also added to the educational option mix was virtual schooling. While this is public schooling at home and not legally 'home schooling' we're happy to provide a clue to parents considering this option. We'll have more complete information up after we get the homeschooling pages up to date. In the meantime, here's the law. To date we only know of K12 having a presence in Tennessee thanks to the Union County School District. Further it's only K-8th grade.
