Home-education compliance for US-MA

Docent treats compliance as product, not paperwork. Every generated document is bound to a cryptographic hash of your child's mastery vector at generation time — defensible during a US-MA assessor review.

    Documents we generate for US-MA

    ma approval

    Cycle: Annual approval required from the local school committee before beginning instruction each year. Approval based on "equivalent instruction" standard (Charles case, 1987). Subjects must include those taught in public school at the same grade.

    Required fields: 11 (10 mandatory)

    Authority: https://www.doe.mass.edu/lawsregs/603cmr28/section8.html

    How the generator works

    1. Docent's voice tutor records your child's mastery on every CD (per content description).
    2. When you click "Generate", the platform pulls the past 12 weeks of mastery + groups them by the US-MA authority's required learning areas.
    3. Claude Opus 4.7 drafts the narrative for each section.
    4. A schema validator checks every required field is populated and curriculum codes match the expected jurisdiction.
    5. You review, edit, then sign. The platform produces both PDF and .docx for filing.
    6. The PDF embeds a sha256 of your child's mastery vector in every page footer — assessor-defensible.
