Due to work we are planning to relocate to NY at the end of this year. We have homeschooled all our children (6-12) so far and want to keep doing so. The last five years we have spent in Florida.
We are very flexible on where to settle, but NY should still be reachable within 1-1.5 hours (not during traffic).
I would appreciate any help: I want to have a good community, support groups, co ops, classes nearby for my kids. So where should I look for a home? Would anybody be willing to introduce me to the regulations on homeschooling in NY (of course I read pretty much everything that is to read out there, but personal experiences would be great to hear).
We love the outdoors and spend a lot of time outside. Also, coming from Europe originally, I would love to have some nice coffee shops and restaurant nearby. Would Long Island be the right place for us? And where so?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you.🌸
