Withdraw from School
Q. What do I do if I want my child to withdraw from school to homeschool now?
A. First, fill out a Notice of Intent to Provide Home Instruction form (NOI) or write a personal letter to the superintendent.
Second, submit your NOI form or letter to the superintendent’s office and request a receipt. There are two ways to submit your NOI.
- Mail your NOI from the post office by certified, return-receipt
- Personally delivered your NOI to the superintendent’s office and request a hand-written receipt from the person who receives it. Your receipt is proof of the date you complied with the homeschool law (§22.1-254.1.) You have notified them of your intent. Also, it shows that you have fulfilled the homeschool option of the compulsory attendance law (§22.1-254).
