Making New York Safer and Easier for Home Schooling

More Freedom from State and District Interference

Support Senate Bill 2060 / Assembly Bill 4598

The old numbers for this bill during the 2001-2002 Session were S4767 and A11364. Much of the information below refers to these numbers. Because this is the very same bill, the information is still valid and timely. Just substitute S2060 for S4767 in the Senate and A4598 for A11364 in the Assembly.

In Spring 2001, State Senator Randy Kuhl introduced Senate Bill 4767 to significantly reduce the maze of regulations currently governing homeschoolers in New York. After careful analysis, the Home School Legal Defense Association (HSLDA) has come out strongly in support of this bill. They concluded that its passage will substantially increase homeschooling freedom and significantly ease the burdens. . . Click here for more
