GETTING
SCHOOL CREDIT IN NEW JERSEY
|
|
If you want to get school credit
for completing New Jersey homeschool courses, you have to hire a service to keep
records of all school courses that your children complete at
home. Since requirements vary from state to state, we
recommend using a service located within New Jersey.
Learning Things can provide you with the materials which can
be used to qualify for credit in any state. However, Learning
Things does not verify that your student has completed the
materials. For that, you would need to hire a record keeping
service. These services
are authorized by the state to keep records of your activities
and award your children with credits. To find a service in
your area, we recommend contacting any of the sources listed
above.
