Homeschooling in Oklahoma
Oklahoman families are allowed to homeschool their children. They must follow specific guidelines for educating their children at home. They must teach at least 180 days per year to children between the ages of 5 and 18. The child’s academic progress must be established and maintained.
Know what goals you want to achieve through your homeschooling process. You decide what educational style and curriculum you’d like to use. The state is not required to furnish home-schooled students with textbooks, resources, or other materials. However, you may apply for a $1,000 tax credit per child to pay for education-related expenses, such as instruction materials and tutoring, under the Universal School Choice Bill passed on May 25, 2023, which takes effect on January 2024.
Withdrawal Letter to Homeschool in Oklahoma
In Oklahoma, while there is no specific legal requirement to submit a withdrawal letter to homeschool (as homeschooling is considered a form of private education), some parents notify their local school district as a courtesy or keep documentation for their records.
