New to homeschooling. Can someone help?

  Abigial2009 » Mon, 27 Jul 2020 13:27:41 PM



Hi everybody!emoji-happy We've been considering homeschooling our kid for approximately 2 years. What guidelines are required to legally homeschool in Texas? I would be very thankful for opinions on the program. Any home schooling pointers are welcome!

Hello there.emoji-happy Homeschooling in Texas is easy, nonetheless, you must meet several guidelines before beginning to homeschool. Homeschooling in Texas has been considered one of the most lenient and straightforward places to homeschool in the country as it requires virtually no government regulations. Parents in Texas are free to choose most of the items they deem fit for their children to learn. A parent or guardian homeschooling their children at home is not obligated by law to be certified as a teacher in Texas. Having said this, homeschooling with curriculum developed by a state certified teacher is highly recommended even if the certified teacher is not a Texas teacher.

The law in Texas provides that homeschoolers should have the following:

· An elaborate instruction for the homeschooler

· A visual curriculum such as an online program, workbooks, etc.

· Spelling, Mathematics, reading, grammar and social studies as part of the curriculum.
