"The Home Link program is the best way for us to learn at our own pace, benefit from the resources of the Bremerton School District, and enjoy the endless possibilities and opportunities of a flexible at-home schedule." Laura, Homelink Student
What is Home Link?
The Bremerton Home Link program is a no-cost, alternative learning education program that emphasizes student needs and strengths. This program is the Bremerton School District’s parent partnership program for families who have chosen to educate their child or children in an alternative way at home.

How is Home Link different from homeschooling?
The Home Link program consists of individualized plans, the district-provided curriculum taught at home by parents, and student progress monitored by a district certificated teacher.
Homeschooling is parent-designed, implemented, and taught. The family is responsible for all curriculum materials and is not accountable to a certificated teacher.
Is Home Link right for my student?
Home Link may be right for your student if he or she:
• is advanced or behind academically and their educational needs are currently not being met within the traditional school setting; OR
• you desire to educate your student at home but need assistance from a certificated teacher, with curriculum, lesson planning, and implementation.
