Homeschool Inspection

Because most homeschools can be subject to an inspection by your state's department of Administration, division of Non-Public Education, you should set up and keep a portfolio for each of the students you are homeschooling. Your portfolio should include your letter of intent to homeschool, medical and immunization records, learning objectives for the year, lists of curriculums, reading lists, and, most importantly, a record of your child's work in each of his or her subject areas. Even though this is a big job, it's well worth the effort. You'll enjoy looking back through old portfolios to look at stories, pictures and projects.
