Homeschool Requirements Relate Back to Your State Homeschool Laws

Homeschool requirements can range from the fairly complicated to the somewhat vague - so the best place to start is the HSLDA Website where you will be able to find detailed homeschool requirements that directly relate to you and your situation. Most states have mandatory reporting, some require a portfolio, yet others want you to have a list of curriculum handed over to the local public school district...so it is worth your while to check out the link thoroughly.

You can also find information about homeschool requirements from the various state support groups. There are just too many to list online, but if you do a Google search for "homeschool support groups" in your state, you'll find what is available. There you will find people who have been schooling at home for a while and those who are band new and could use a buddy.

You don't have to join any group, and most certainly all the information you need about the homeschool requirements in your state is almost certainly online somewhere.

My state, Colorado, has a pretty vague and simple homeschool requirements law, as do most. They require:

  1. An annual "Intent to Homeschool" letter be sent to any public school district in the state
  2. Mandatory testing every other year from grades 3-11 or an evaluation
  3. Teach standard subjects like history, English, Math etc
