Your State-to-Schedule Blueprint

What Is Required

New Hampshire requires notice to a participating agency within five business days after a home education program begins and notice when it ends. The parent maintains a portfolio for at least two years and obtains an annual evaluation using an allowed standardized test, certified-teacher evaluation, or other agreed method; results are retained by the parent unless lawfully requested. The companion includes agency selection, notice/termination, statutory subject map, portfolio, annual evaluation, and retention checklist.

Tier 3 State Companion: Editable, parent-reviewable 36-week Curriculum Summary Draft with student and grade/year details, parent and instructor fields, four nine-week review/report dates, and subject-by-subject scope, sequence, objectives, resources, methods, and progress evidence. It also adds notice within five business days, required subjects, two-year portfolio retention, and annual evaluation record. Parent review and submission remain required.

What Is Not Required

No annual curriculum filing is identified; the commencement notice, retained portfolio, and annual evaluation still apply.

Your Next Steps

Review and correct every generated field, confirm the current official source and local/pathway instructions, sign where appropriate, and submit any required notice, plan, report, evaluation, or other form yourself. K–5 Blueprint does not file on the family's behalf or guarantee agency acceptance.

New Hampshire’s Home Education Freedom Act became effective July 1, 2026; older pages that still describe mandatory notice, portfolio, or annual evaluation are outdated.
