Hi!study No. Unfortunately, the law in California doesn't require public schools to provide services to homeschooled children. In California the public school system isn't obligated by law to provide certain services to students. Homeschooled students may be able to participate in extracurricular activities of the local school whenever there is a chance as well as other academic programs they may choose. Parents must make a request to the local school to find out whether the child will be eligible to participate in the upcoming school year.

Welcome to the homeschooling world! Not really. By law, homeschooled students aren't automatically given access to some school services in California. You may be able to access some services but will need to check with the school district. This page provides a lot of good guidance regarding homeschooling in California:

Hey,homeschool-placer California law doesn't make it mandatory for schools to provide services to homeschooling families. It is up to your local school district to decide if they will make services available to your homeschoolers.
