In Ohio, when we notify(we are notifying of our intent to educate our
children at home, not asking permission!!!), we have to submit our
_intendend_ curriculum.The operative word is intednded--things change, and
life presents us with all kinds of opportunities and challenges. Some folks
just copy from World Bk Encyclopedia's typical Course of Study K-12. I used
to sweat about it until i realized that they really don't care--so i write a
brief narrative statement about continuing our explorations in xyz, using
educationally and developmentally appropriate materials, etc. I don't expect
problems and have never had them!!

We kept "residency" in IN to avoid all that "crap" & paperwork; but I have
to pass on this from a Hser here in NH.
She was all hyped up trying to meet their deadline to submit their intended
curriculum & materials. She stayed up late to finish it and in the morning
turned it in. When handing it to the superintendent's secretary (or whoever
it was) she bearly looked up from her desk,didn't even pause from her own
paperwork, said "Oh, thanks." and opened her drawer, shoving it in a file.
HMMM wonder if anyone even read it?
