YES!! Homeschooling laws are in all 50 states!! And it is legal in each state! However, each state has their own unique laws and homeschooling requirements. Laws and regulations vary from state to state. You will need to read and follow the homeschooling laws in your state.

Homeschooling is education that is directed by the parent or guardian of the child who has been excused from attending school.

The parent of guardian selects the curriculum and education materials and takes responsibility for educating the child. There is no state financial assistance for families who homeschool.
