Homeschooling in the United States

Homeschooling in the United States refers to the practice of educating children at home rather than in traditional public or private schools. Parents or guardians take on the responsibility for their child’s education, often following a curriculum they choose or create. The legality and regulations surrounding homeschooling vary by state, with some requiring formal notification and assessments. Many families opt for homeschooling for reasons such as flexibility in learning styles, religious beliefs, or dissatisfaction with local school systems. Support networks, resources, and co-ops are available to assist homeschooling families.
