A: If the school district you’re in is not offering remote learning, then you’d either need to send them to school, apply for & be approved for home schooling – or run the risk of a child neglect case being filed against you. You may wish to look into applying for an exemption (if the school district offers that). Assuming you live in NYC, one method is to apply for “medically necessary [out-of-school] instruction” -https://www.schools.nyc.gov/learning/programs/medically-necessary-instruction. Schedule a consult with a NYC Family Law attorney for a full assessment.
