Pick up DEC at the DNPE office?
Only school chief administrators may stop by the DNPE office to pick them up. However, the DNPE staff members who issue them to school administrators may be out of the office that day visiting schools. Consequently, it is strongly suggested that school administrators always call at least a day ahead to make certain that a DEC can be made available for pickup on the preferred day. Under no circumstances are students permitted to pick them up. A reminder that the non-public school (both home and conventional types) must already have on file with DNPE a currently valid Notice of Intent for at least six consecutive calendar months prior to the pickup date.
