ACADEMICS / ALTERNATIVE EDUCATION

While some parents are interested in home schooling, others prefer non-public or private education in parochial or independent schools. The Office of Family Involvement offers information on home education that includes Florida statutes and district contacts. This office also provides information and resources on Florida’s non-public schools, including general requirements, accreditation, and the directory of non-public schools:
