Question by Charlie: How do you obtain a high school diploma via a “homebound program”?
A homebound program, if i’m not mistaken, is a program established by the parent via letter of intent to the superintendent of the school district. If “homebound program,” is not the correct term please correct me in your response.

I’ve read that I can obtain it via maintaining a portfolio and taking the SAT (I&II) ?

Please explain the process more clearly if possible, and any other information on this would be greatly appreciated.

Please have experience or first-hand knowledge of the subject in question, if deciding to answer.

thanks!

Charlie
