4) I’m concerned about the safety of my family’s data in Home School Monitoring Platform.
The primary goal of using the Home School Monitoring Platform is to streamline and make more secure our homeschool record keeping. Data protection is of paramount importance to Erie 1 BOCES and the Home School Monitoring Service. The Home School Monitoring Platform is FERPA and Education Law 2-d compliant.

6) Why am I unable to upload my student’s IHIP, quarterly report, or annual assessment?
To upload a document, it must be in Word or PDF format and it must not include special characters such as ‘, -‘ or & in the title.
7) Why did the system time out when I entered my student’s quarterly report into the online form?
There is a system time-out setting that automatically logs users out after 1 hour. Therefore, parents should complete their form entries and submit them within one hour to avoid being logged out and losing the information they entered. If a parent anticipates needing longer than 1hour for form entry, they should consider typing the entries into a separate document and copying and pasting the information into the online form.
