What We Do

The purpose of the Homebound/Home-Hospital Program is to provide instruction to students who are unable to attend school due to a medical condition. Homebound teachers and staff provide instruction in the students’ homes as well as in a hospital setting for those who are currently enrolled in El Paso Independent School District.

To qualify for program services:

• Students must be diagnosed with a medical condition that prevents them from attending school.

• A physician statement (from a medical doctor licensed in the United States) must be completed and given to the program nurse.

• Students must be confined to the home (and are only permitted to leave the home for medical appointments).

• Students need to be receiving medical treatment during the time they are at home with the goal of returning to school (to be determined by the student's physician).
