    A quick google search elicited this website run by Pauline Harding about homeschooling in PA.

    http://home.comcast.net/~askpauline/hs/homeschoollaw.html

    A quick read didn't elucidate whether partial homeschooling is possible but there is a contact for Pauline. There is a lot of info on the website including the Home Education Law for the state.

    I have been homeschooling in the Philly area for a decade. I have never heard of anyone partial homeschooling in PA. I am on all of the lists and well networked. I have to think if this were possible I would have heard of it.

    There are several drop off day programs for homeschoolers in the Delware Valley. I am on the board of one that serves gifted homeschoolers. My kids go there two days per week. If anyone is interested in learning more, please feel free to pm me.

    Fwiw, my wife worked in a SD in NJ where there was a high concentration of secular Ashkenazim (it was right next to a major NJ college town). Several kids (typically kids of tenured professors) there were partially homeschooled but came to the high school for sciences - mainly for the lab work. Different state and over a decade ago, I realise, but that always struck me as an almost perfect blend.
