About Kim Andrysczyk
I am new to this and trying to navigate it. I have a five year old and just ordered her kindergarten materials. I want to teach year round instead of taking summers off for continuous learning and to be able to take a week off here and there for vacations and holidays. If the reports are due on certain dates, how does that work? Are certain associations year round and others 9 months on 3 off? I am just trying to clarify.
Thank you,
Confused mom
Associations provide documentation that allows you to be exempt from compulsory attendance. Exact membership dates vary. Some run from July 1-June 30, others run from June 1 to May 30. But, you set the pace and schedule of the learning activities.
