I am sorry your son is sick. I teach in Georgia and if a student is to sick to attend school the school is required to provide "Home bound" instruction.

A teacher goes to the child's home for a few hours a day a few days a week. The kids work on thier own on the days the teachers do not come.

I think this is a federal guideline so LA should have a similar program. Call your local school.

I homeschooled my daughter for 2 years( junior high) for health reasons. When she got better, we went to the Parish school board and they took over (homebound) and eventually gradually reintroduced her to school. I researched curriculum and followed a few. All we did was once a year she took a national standardized test, which I sent to the state of Louisiana. That part was easy. Being the only target for all your kid's frustrations, that was hard.
Also, look into the louisiana Virtual school. It is a state online school, pretty good. They had more applicants than spaces when I last heard about it but it sounded ideal.
