What New Hampshire asks for

The filing pairs an assessment result with evidence from your records. New Hampshire requires one annual evaluation. You can use a certified teacher's written evaluation, a standardized test with a composite at or above the 40th percentile, or another method mutually agreed on with the participating agency — results stay with the family. Under RSA 193-A, families keep a portfolio containing a reading log and samples of the student's work — writings, worksheets, workbooks, and creative materials — for two years. The portfolio isn't submitted.

When it is due

New Hampshire reports once a year, but publishes no single statewide date, so your deadline can depend on your district. Confirm it with the office that receives your filing, then treat it as fixed.

Who reviews it

In New Hampshire the filing lands with a district office. Nobody is grading it. The office is confirming that a filing exists and that it's complete, so a plain report that answers every field gets you further than an elaborate one.

Pulling the numbers together

Nearly every field on the report traces back to records you either kept or skipped. Total days taught, subjects covered, progress per student, dates of instruction: all of it is a copy job if you logged as you went, and a weekend of detective work if you didn't. Homeschool Fox keeps the running totals for New Hampshire and turns them into a printable report, which leaves you reviewing numbers instead of hunting for them.

If you miss a deadline

A missed deadline in New Hampshire is fixable. File as soon as you catch it instead of waiting for the office to ask. Contact them, explain in a sentence, and send what you have. Things get harder when a family goes quiet for a few months, and a report that arrives a week late rarely registers at all. Set a reminder two weeks ahead of each date and the problem stops recurring.

Common mistakes in New Hampshire

• Assuming the notice repeats each year

  New Hampshire's notice of intent is one-time, filed with your participating agency. The annual obligation is the evaluation, not another notice. Families reverse these two often enough that it is worth stating plainly.

• Keeping the portfolio for one year

  New Hampshire asks you to keep the portfolio, including a reading log and work samples, for two years. Clearing it out after the annual evaluation leaves you a year short.

Getting ready to file in New Hampshire

Do these through the year and the report turns into an hour of copying numbers you already have.

1. 1

   Put every due date on a calendar now

   Confirm your exact date with the office that receives the filing, then set a reminder two weeks ahead of it.

2. 2

   Keep the attendance total current

   Most reports open with the number of days or hours taught, and that is the hardest figure to recover once the year is over.

3. 3

   Note progress as you go

   A sentence per subject per month becomes a progress summary you can hand over without writing anything new.

4. 4

   Collect work samples through the term

   Pull two or three dated samples per subject as you finish them. Hunting for them the week of the deadline is where the stress comes from.

5. 5

   Send it and keep proof

   Save a copy of what you filed and the date you sent it, the same way you would with your notice of intent.
