Check Your State's Requirements

Instant access to your state's homeschool regulations, notification deadlines, and required subjects.

Homeschool law is set entirely at the state level, and it varies more than most new homeschoolers expect: some states ask for nothing at all, others require annual notification, standardized testing, and a list of specific subjects. Homeschool Owl keeps a page for all 50 states covering notification requirements and deadlines, testing requirements and frequency, required subjects, instructional-day expectations, and where to actually submit anything.

Each state's data is dated and sourced, so you can see when it was last checked and where the underlying rule comes from rather than taking it on faith. If something looks wrong, every state page has a correction form built in, and it's reviewed by a real person, not auto-published.

This part of the app is free to use whether or not you ever create an account. Look up your state, decide if the rest of the app is worth it for your family, no pressure either way.

  • Notification, testing, and reporting requirements for all 50 states
  • Required subjects pulled directly from each state's homeschool law
  • No account needed, free to look up, right now
