Michigan Home School Law

In Michigan, homeschooling is legal and regulated by the state. Parents must provide a comprehensive educational program, which can include standard subjects like math, science, and literature. They must create a curriculum and keep educational records, but they are not required to follow state standards or have their children take standardized tests. Parents must notify the local school district of their intent to homeschool. Access to certain public school services may be available, but generally, homeschooled students do not participate in public school athletics. It’s essential for parents to stay informed about their responsibilities to ensure compliance.
