====================================================================== From the HSLDA E-lert Service... ====================================================================== October 2, 2009 New Hampshire--Education Committee "Still Studying" Homeschool Law! Dear HSLDA Members and Friends, As you may know, the "Survey" subcommittee met on September 29. Only four superintendents were invited to discuss their "experience" with homeschooling. Ironically, all their "observations" seemed to support the need for new regulations. Please see HSLDA's news article http://www.hslda.org/hs/state/nh/200910010.asp for an account of the meeting. This subcommittee will meet once again for a work session on Tuesday, October 20, 2009, at 10:00 a.m. in Legislative Office Building 207. The complete House Education Committee is due to report its recommendations on H.B. 368 by December 2. The whole committee will have to meet to discuss this matter, presumably sometime in November. The bill as reported out of the House Education Committee will likely be voted on by the whole House in early January. A comment by a Department of Education official at the hearing suggested that the DOE's Home Education Rules (Ed 315) would be opened up for rulemaking in the coming months. HSLDA will be following this process to keep you informed. ACTION REQUESTED Please attend the Survey to Superintendents Subcommittee work session on October 20, 2009. We encourage strong attendance from homeschoolers at these work sessions, because it shows that homeschoolers are concerned about their freedoms. While there will likely be no time for public comment, the public is welcome to attend. If possible, bring a tape recorder or video recorder along to capture the proceedings. Now is also a good time to make contact with your local representative to inform him or her about your opposition to increased regulation of homeschoolers in New Hampshire. Thank you for your strong support of homeschool freedom in New Hampshire! Very truly yours, Michael P. Donnelly, Esq. HSLDA Staff Attorney ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -> Can you look at the clouds and tell the direction of the wind? An interesting phenomenon of wind is that it can blow in multiple directions at the same time, at different heights from the ground. But usually there is a prevailing wind. HSLDA watches the gusts and monitors the prevailing trends of change in the legal climate of home education. So no matter which way the wind is blowing, we're there to protect your family.
