Can I start getting home schooled in the middle of the school year?

March 11th, 2010 | by |

I have to attend a school which is very far away from my house and I've already missed a lot of days of school to make up for the work I've missed so it all seems a bit tedious. Can I just drop out of that school and start getting home schooled or online homeschooling?

    yeah, i did that in high school. i just quit going to the public school, and had my transcripts sent from there to the place i was homeschooling through.

    Yes. Your parents will have to go threw some paperwork and talk to the principals and bored of education but it’s really no biggie.

    of course! All of your information is transferred to the website && you’d still be able to graduate with a highschool (:

    When I took my daughter out of public school, I had to go to a county official and sign her out. The laws regarding homeschooling vary state to state and maybe within certain states, by county.

    Your school district will almost certainly fight your being home schooled as the local schools get state and federal money for body counts in their class rooms.

    Your parents would need to discuss this with your school district.

    I would think so but you have to contact the board of ed. or your school & I don’t know what they will need to give you permission but be ready for that.

    Each state has different laws.
    It all depends on where you live.
