Private-School Equivalency Rules Upheld

FAQs

Does “substantial equivalency” mean identical curriculum?

No. Schools may teach additional religious or cultural material, but core academic content must be comparable in breadth and rigor.

How often are reviews?

At least every seven years, though interim visits can occur if complaints arise.

What if we disagree with a negative determination?

You may request reconsideration and, ultimately, seek Article 78 review in court.
