Homeschool Meaningful Consultation
Christina School District held a virtual Meaningful Consultation meeting for parents of students parentally placed in homeschool programs to discuss how qualifying students parentally placed in homeschool programs can access federally funded services (Senate Bill 106).
What is Senate Bill 106?
This Act makes students who attend homeschools eligible for the same services for children with disabilities as students who attend private schools in a manner that allows federal funds to pay for the services. This Act is the result of discussions regarding Senate Bill No. 19, which would make homeschool students eligible for speech therapy services, and accomplishes the goal of Senate Bill No. 19 because through meaningful consultation, speech therapy services are often included in the services provided to students who attend private schools.
