Homeschool SPED Student

By Brian Fleischman on September 28, 2020

Good morning PowerSchool/Adviser Braintrust,

I have a student whose parents have decided to homeschool them. This student receives SPED services. I'm guessing I leave them enrolled in PowerSchool but not enrolled in any classes. There's no way it's this easy as there has to be somewhere I indicate they are homeschooled. Thanks for any help you can provide and stay safe everyone.

Good Morning, We also have numerous students who are in this category. To both document their services, and to avoid the ADVISER error that the student is enrolled at the school, but not in any courses, we enroll these students into a SPED Services course.section with a certified teacher (usually their Case Manager).

We do the same thing. Just enter the appropriate membership share for their service time - this would be a decimal number.

Thank you for the input. What State Course Code (ID) did you use for this course? 180000 for self-contained classroom?

Maurice du Preez on September 29, 2020
If the student is an elementary student, yes, you may use the code 180000.

Thanks Maurice!

I assume that the teacher assigned to this section has the relevant endorsement?
