Home Schooling Resources

A minority of states have statutes that require public schools to give home schooled students access to district resources, such as school libraries, computer labs, extracurricular activities, or even academic courses. In some communities, home schoolers meet with a teacher periodically for curriculum review and suggestions. The laws of some states give districts the option of giving home schooled students access to such resources.

Advocacy Organizations

To help protect the rights of parents to legally home school their children, many membership organizations have been started. There are several national level groups.

Many states also have organizations. Some believe groups at state level are more effective because homeschool laws are made at the state level.
