    What is Home Link?

This program is the Bremerton School District’s parent partnership program for families who have chosen to educate their child or children in an alternative way at home.

    How is Home Link different from homeschooling? 
    The Home Link program consists of individualized plans, district-provided curriculum taught at home by parents, and student progress monitored by a district certificated teacher. 

    Homeschooling is parent designed, implemented, and taught. The family is responsible for all curriculum materials and are not accountable to a certificated teacher. 
     
    Is Home Link right for my student? 
    Home Link may be right for your student if he or she:

    • is advanced or behind academically and their educational needs are currently not being met within the traditional school setting; OR
    • you desire to educate your student at home but need assistance from a certificated teacher, with curriculum, lesson planning and implementation.
