Welcome to the forum, Homeschooling in Michigan is pretty straight-forward, nonetheless, you have to observe several steps before they begin to homeschool. As it turns out, homeschooling in Michigan has been considered one of the most lenient and straightforward places to homeschool in the country as it requires very little government oversight. Parents are at liberty to choose many of the things they deem fit for their student to study. A parent/guardian or person(s) teaching a child elsewhere than at school is not required by law to be certified as a teacher in Michigan. However, using curriculum developed by a state certified or licensed teachers is highly recommended even if the teacher is not a Michigan teacher. You have two options to homeschool in Michigan. 1. As a non-public school – this option is associated with more requirements. The law requires that only a certified teacher is considered eligible to teach the subjects with an exemption to a religious option. The curriculum chosen must be comparable to that used in the local district for your student’s age and grade. Upon request by the Superintendent of Public Instruction’s office, a parent is obligated and must be willing to submit information on the teachers’ qualification, the course of studies chosen and the enrollment of the pupils. 2. As a home education program – this option does not require reporting to a school official and no enrollment process is needed. The statute does not require parents to notify local government or education authorities that they are homeschooling. The parent determines when the student is ready to begin the program. The only requirement is that you must include instruction in the subjects of Mathematics, History, Reading, Civics, Writing, Literature, English Grammar, Spelling and Science.
