We recently had to send in our yearly Intent to Homeschool paperwork & it got me thinking. A year ago, I had literally no idea what I was doing. I met with one of the only other homeschool moms I knew at the time and asked for her help. We sat at her computer and she typed out my Outline of Intended Home Education for me. I had no idea what I was doing, no idea what curriculum I was using yet, no idea what was even going on, to be honest. I remember how exciting, but scary this huge life change was for me!

She typed it up, printed it out for me, and I’m not kidding you I thought there is surely no way a school is going to accept this, but she says it’ll do. So I printed out the legal Intent to Homeschool Document for my state (Ohio), filled it out, and sent these papers out in the mail.

Sure enough, the papers we sent in were accepted! We were free to begin our homeschooling journey.

This year, I made my own Assurance of Home Education using the Canva app & I am SO proud of how it looks that I wanted to share it with you – in case you also have no idea how to make your first one either.

With this being our second year of homeschooling, I also had to send in our completed Yearly Teacher Assesment for Ella & Mia. We used Debbie Heck as our assesor- I highly recommend her. She made the process so easy & stress-free and she is very affordable for large families like mine (some assessors charge per student, she charges per family).

I attached the blank version of the Assurance of Home Education file for you to edit on Canva to suit your own homeschool curriculum below. I hope it makes your new homeschooling process less stressful for you!

Until next time ♡ Mama Morozov
