When your child is too sick (mentally or physically) to attend school, the school still has an obligation to educate your child in the home or hospital setting. 

There is no set number of hours the school must provide.  The amount of tutoring time must be individualized.

In order to qualify for home / hospital tutoring, your child's physician must submit written verification that your child is unable to attend school. 

The legal requirements of home / hospital tutoring are complicated. Learn more about home / hospital tutoring  by reading the Massachusetts Department of Education's Question and Answer Guide.  Then, if you have questions, contact the Boston area special education law office of Lillian E. Wong.

It is doubtful that any child may reasonably be expected to succeed in life if he is denied the opportunity of an education.
