Home Based Options - Home School

Home Based Education is often referred to as HOME SCHOOL or Home Schooling. Home Based Ed is not the same as online learning, remote learning, or participating in any program through Jeffco Public Schools related to distance, remote, or online learning.

 

Per Colorado law, it is recognized that home-based education is a legitimate alternative to classroom attendance for the instruction of children. Nonpublic home-based educational programs are subject only to minimum state controls which are currently applicable to other forms of nonpublic education. (CRS 22-33-104.5.1)
