Elementary HomeSchool
Philosophy
The elementary homeschool portion of Davis School for Independent Study is appropriate for children in the elementary grades (K-6). The elementary homeschool program provides a format for supporting a home-based, parent-guided educational process. The DSIS homeschool option involves parents taking a significant and active role in the instruction of their child while working with an independent study teacher. DSIS provides assistance with curriculum consistent with the district’s approved course of study and aligned with the state grade level expectations. The focus of the program is to ensure education according to each child’s individual strengths and needs. DSIS recognizes that parents understand the needs of their child and strive to provide an excellent educational program suited for their child. Families have access to district standard resources such as the library and computer lab.
The parents and the teacher actively monitor student progress. Instruction progresses at the pace agreed upon by the parent, teacher and the student; keeping individual capability and interest level a priority. The teacher, parent and student collaborate in various forms of performance-based evaluations.
