As another school year got underway, THSC found it necessary to inform an elementary principal at Lamesa ISD that it is not necessary for a parent or guardian to make an appearance at the school or complete school forms to disenroll their child if they have given written notice of withdrawal; neither is it required by law.
Apparently, as part of their policy, Lamesa ISD requires parents, who are withdrawing their children from that district to homeschool, to review a 10-page “Home School Information Packet,” which includes several pages for parents to sign and return. Tim later followed up with a second letter to the assistant superintendent explaining that this packet was in direct violation of the laws regarding home schooling that have been determined by the courts.
