HOME SCHOOLING

There are two possible options for home schooling. Home schooling under the Non-DoD Schools Program (NDSP), where no Department of Defense Dependents Schools are available within the commuting area and home schooling as a parental preference.

Home Schooling (Non-DoD Schools Program)

DoDDS - Europe, NDSP has the responsibility to support educational services at government expense to authorized command-sponsored dependents of military members and DoD civilian employees assigned to overseas areas where no DoD Dependents School is available within the commuting area. Parents electing to provide home-schooling instruction rather than enrolling their child in a local school must follow the procedures and guidelines included in the Home-Schooling Information Paper.
Home Schooling (Parental Preference)
It is DoDEA policy neither to encourage nor discourage DoD sponsors from home schooling their minor dependents. However, if a parent chooses to educate a child at home they must contact the School Liaison Officer at the nearest U.S. military installation to determine host nation laws regarding school registration and enrollment, and local home schooling requirements. Parents choosing to home school must also follow the procedures and guidelines included in DoDEA Policy Memorandum for Home Schooling.
