New York Letter of Intent — free template

Fill in the blanks below and download a clean, print-ready letter for your superintendent. No account, no cost — add your email only if you'd like New York deadline reminders.

When is it due?

Notify your local school district superintendent in writing of your intent to home-instruct, by July 1. Families starting mid-year must file within 14 days of beginning home instruction. Send it to your local school district superintendent. Keep a dated copy for your records — certified mail or email with a read receipt is a good habit.

8 NYCRR § 100.10(b)
