Home School Program

Our mission is to provide support for families who choose to educate their children in the home. The Home School Program assists parents in educating their children to become contributing members of a literate, skilled, and responsible society. As we continue to grow, we continue to develop new programs and activities for our students and their parents. Aside from supplying our students with all required textbooks, we guide our parents through their lesson planning. We also have computers for use in our classroom as needed and math manipulatives for check-out. Additionally, home school families will join together for several field trips throughout the year, as well as, participating in our Annual Speech/Presentation Day and family picnic. Finally, workshops to assist parents with instruction in writing and mathematics are offered a few times each year, as needed.

The East Whittier City School District supports ALL children through a variety of educational programs. These include our outstanding traditional general education programs in our 13 schools, our special education programs, our G.A.T.E. programs, and, of course, our home school program. Each child is a unique individual with unique needs. We choose to provide differentiated programs to meet those needs.
