We are due to close on the 15th of December, and move out to NM.
I undertand I must notify,by email, within 30 days of intent to homeschool.
Does this mean within 30 days of arriving to NM, or may I take my time to do this?? Could I just do it at the April date that is required? Are they pretty sticky with this requirement or do some people stay "underground"?
We are coming from a state that does not require ANYTHING, so even just this requirement feels obtrusive.
thanks ahead |

I'm not positive, but I'm sure you could take some time before filling out the intent form. I would not be rushing to do it if it was me. I don't know the age of your child(ren), but I think you don't have to do anything untill they're 7 yo.
Maybe someone out there with more knowledge knows for sure?
Goog moving! |

Jennifer, school age officially starts on the Sept 1 that the child is 5 years old. I'm told that you can delay kindergarten age by two years (up to age 7 as of Sept 1) but you have to have the permission of someone (can't remember who... superintendant of your school district, maybe?).
"HisGrace4us" - welcome to NM! It sounds like you're familiar with the state's homeschooling laws since you know about the April 30/30 days rule. I doubt if anyone here is going to stick their neck out far enough to tell you to go ahead and break the rules if you feel like it, but I will say that I've never heard of anyone getting found out and punished in any way for neglecting to register by the deadlines. |
