New rules for homeschooling and private schools

The law takes effect immediately. To be exempt from compulsory public school enrollment, homeschool parents must tell the county superintendent each school fiscal year that their child attended. They must keep attendance records and show them if asked. Homeschools must meet the state's minimum hours of instruction and teach the core subjects public schools teach. Private (nonpublic) schools must keep attendance and immunization records and show them on request. They must meet the minimum hours, teach the required subjects, and use buildings that meet local health and safety rules.
