Texas State Homeschooling Law

I mentioned when I found out more I would post to share it with all of you. Today I read the chapter from the Homeschooling for Dummies book regarding the legal matters of it. What I have found out is that in the state of Texas it is perfectly legal to homeschool your child. Here parents operate their homeschool with the same status as a private school. Just as private schools do, parents have complete freedom to regulate themselves. No daily attendance requirement is set as long you are teaching a basic knowledge of math, reading, spelling, grammer, and citizenship. As your child proceeds to higher grades and becomes college bound, you will find yourself doing more record-keeping compared to the earlier years.
