Homebound Services
 The
Homebound Program is for students who are unable to attend
school due to temporary illness, accident, or an unusual
disability condition. A normal pregnancy and/or psychological
evaluations do not fall under this definition unless
they have resulted in a physiological trauma.
A student must be absent from school ten consecutive
days or a physician statement must certify in advance
that the absence will exceed this period of time.
Homebound instruction is not intended to take the place
of the educational program obtained through regular school
attendance. The intent is to maintain current skill levels
until the student can return to school. Although there
are exceptions, the homebound student will not acquire
credit because, typically, the student receives only
2 to 3 hours of instruction per week.
