Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to follow my state's public school math curriculum?+
No. Even states that name math as a required subject area do not mandate a specific curriculum, pacing, or scope and sequence, you choose the materials and method.
What if my state requires math but my child is behind?+
Most states don't test annually or set grade-level benchmarks for homeschoolers. Where testing is required, it typically checks overall progress rather than mastery of a specific grade level. Check your state's testing requirement for specifics.
