Requirements
- Yearly Registration
- Registration is good for the current school year. Students must be registered each school year. (Example: If student registers in February, that is good until the end of June of that year. Then student must be re-registered for the next school year in July.)
- School Year
- The school year starts on July 1st and ends on June 30th of the following year. Enrollment is open year-round. Transfers are accepted throughout the school year. Most students enroll for the new school year during July and August.
- Start Date
- The student's enrollment at Daniel 1 Academy begins on the date he/she registers for that school year. (Example: Student starts home schooling in August, but does not register until sometime in November. The school days between August and November will not be counted as school days at Daniel 1 Academy.)
- Attendance
- Daniel 1 Academy requires a minimum of 180 days but we do not require an attendance report. Parents are to be responsible for making sure their student meets this requirement.
- Grade Reports
- Parents of students on the Homeschool Program are required to submit a grade report for each semester. First semester reports are due January 30th and second semester reports are due June 30th. If a student withdraws from D1A during a semester, the parent must submit the grade report at time of withdrawal.
- Achievement Testing
- Grades 9-12 are required to take the yearly achievement test. Seniors and any juniors planning to graduate in May are given the test in November in Cookeville. Grades 9-11 can take the test in April at one of several locations in Tennessee. D1A also offers testing for grades1-8 in Cookeville in April for a limited number of students on a first-come basis. Parents must sign students up for testing at the time of registration.
- Withdrawing from Daniel 1 Academy
- To withdraw from D1A during the school year, you must complete the Withdrawal Request Form and send it to Daniel 1 along with a grade report form for the time spent homeschooling. We will not release records to another school unless all accounts are settled and reports have been turned in. All fees are non-refundable including the achievement test fee.
