ACADEMICS
Home Instruction Schools is a diverse and inclusive community of lifelong learners and teachers working in conjunction with affiliated schools to provide students with a continuum of educational services with reduced loss of educational standing.
Social Studies
We provide a flexible multi-disciplinary approach aligned to the curricula provided by the student's school of affiliation. Social Studies classes encourage critical thinking about society, culture, history, and community.
Science
We teach Regents, middle school, elementary, and other science classes aligned to the student's school of affiliation. Students get frequent opportunities to explore important topics pertaining to science through an inquiry-based approach.
Math
Whether the student is taking foundational or advanced Regents mathematics, we target a deeper understanding of math at the level of the individual student while increasing the student's level of readiness.
Literature Arts
Reading and writing at all levels is a necessary skill for interacting with the world when school is done. Home Instruction focuses on developing key reading, writing, and communication skills aligned to the standards of the school of affiliation.
Elective courses
Elective courses are required for students to gain enough credits to graduate. Home Instruction teaches elective courses with the same fidelity that we teach the core courses.
​
Family input
Home Instruction Schools aligns its program to state standards while integrating the educational needs of the student and the support needs of the family.
