This website offers clear cut information to the public. It covers approaches to learning, a section on how homeschooling works with the federal government and even includes a kid’s corner and a recommended book list.

Home Education & Family Services/Royal Academy has partnered with the National Foundation for Teaching Entrepreneurship (NFTE) to provide online training for Homeschoolers who would like to learn how to start and operate their own small business and write a business plan. “BizTech” is an internet based curriculum designed to teach simplified “MBA” concepts to middle school and high school age students. High school credit can be earned from the Royal Academy and college credit from the State University of New York is available to those who pass an online college level exam at the completion of BizTech.

This is a network of parents home schooling, or thinking about home schooling, their handicapped child. The parents of any child who would be labeled by the Committee on Special Education of the public school system would be invited to join PICC. Members have children with a wide range of handicapping conditions such as learning disabilities, attention deficit, cerebral palsy, blindness, and Down Syndrome. There is a PICC Directory and a bi-monthly newsletter. If a family joins PICC ($7.50 annual membership - check made out to PICC), they get a copy of the (completely confidential) Directory. Then, when families need help or encouragement, they can call someone with a similar circumstance for encouragement or information. PICC also has a lending library containing a wide variety of books, audio tapes and video tapes which can be borrowed for a small fee by its members. PICC is a source of legal information and an advocate for these families. PICC makes available information concerning current NYS regulations, curriculum, and resources for special needs children in New York State. They have representatives on the Home Instruction Advisory Group in Albany advising the State Education Department about home schooling regulation and policy.
