These Homeschool Programs Are GONE

Colorado’s homeschool enrichment landscape is changing fast—and some programs are already gone.

Since our last update, several homeschool enrichment programs have shut down, leaving families searching for alternatives as the school year gets underway. Now, the Colorado State Board of Education is considering new rules that could reshape how these programs operate going forward.

Erin Brantley and Ross Izard break down the two options on the table, including new restrictions on how homeschool enrichment programs can work with outside organizations. They also explore what should actually count as “enrichment,” how much control school districts should have, and whether the state can provide stronger oversight without eliminating innovative opportunities for students.

Plus, the rulemaking process is still underway. Erin and Ross explain what happens next—and how parents can make their voices heard before the rules are finalized.
