After opening the policy for public comment and receiving none, the board approved new homeschooling policy IGBH on second and final reading; administration will notify parents about services available to home-educated students.
The Laramie County School District No. 2 Board of Trustees approved policy IGBH (homeschooling) on second and final reading at its Aug. 11 meeting. There was no public comment on the item prior to the vote.
Trustee Kendra moved to approve the policy on second and final reading; Trustee Julianne seconded the motion. The board called for a voice vote and approved the policy.
Justin, a district administrator, said the administration will send a letter to parents confirming their intent to homeschool and explaining district- and state-level services that may be available to children who are homeschooled. "It's not school. It may ruffle a feather or two with as we navigate through this new policy or this new state statute," Justin said, noting that the notification letter is intended to ensure families know about possible services.
Ending: The policy is adopted as presented; administration will follow up with parent notification and information on services available to homeschooled students.
