School: How To Enroll

The Enrollment Process

Enrollment in Oak Meadow School is a choice for families who want full academic credit and the support of a teacher during their children's educational journey. With enrollment, you combine the benefits of learning within the home environment with the support of an accredited school program.

To begin the enrollment process, please call our offices to speak with an enrollment counselor, or click here to have an Oak Meadow Enrollment Counselor contact you.

We are available 9:00-5:00 (Eastern Standard Time) and can be reached at 802-251-7250.

With all new families, we review the role of the Oak Meadow teacher, your role as the Home Teacher, what you can expect in the Welcome Packet, and the ways in which the office can assist you through the year. Distance learning is a unique form of education, and we want to make sure everyone gets off to the best start in their Oak Meadow experience.

Most enrollments can be processed within one week, and students can begin sending lessons to their teacher on their Start Date. We offer open enrollment, so each family is able to choose a start date for the ten month enrollment period, giving you the flexibility to craft a school year schedule that works best for you.

Oak Meadow is an approved Vermont Independent School and has been fully accredited by the SACS/CASI. since 2002. In 2008 we successfully completed the reaccreditation process with CITA, which has reciprocal agreements with the Middle States and Southern States accrediting bodies, among others. Learn more about our accreditation and the benefits of working with an accredited school.

Verification of Enrollment

Enrolling your children in Oak Meadow School may eliminate the need for you to file an "intent to home school" with your state. Upon enrollment, we provide a dated Verification of Enrollment document for you to keep with your child's academic records. We recommend checking regularly with your local Department of Education or school district regarding local laws and distance learning regulations.
