Alaska homeschool letters

The letters a family sends, addressed and ready to print. Nothing you type is saved or sent.

Alaska asks for no notice on the route described on its page: We found no notice, registration or approval rule for a parent educating a child at home. You may still want the letter to the school your child is leaving, below.

Checked October 27, 2026. Information, not legal advice: Alaska's statute and education department are the final word.

Re: Letter to the school your child is leaving, Alaska

I am withdrawing ________________ from ________________, effective ________________, to provide home education in Alaska.

Please send me a copy of the school records, including attendance, grades, any test results and, where there is one, the IEP or 504 plan.

Thank you for your help.

Sincerely,

Signed ______________________________

Before you send it

  • Read what to file in Alaska: the To and By lines there are the ones these letters use, each linked to the law.
  • Keep a copy, and send it a way you can prove: by hand with a dated receipt, by certified mail, or by email if the office accepts it.
  • Taking a child out of school mid-year? See the Alaska checklist for the order of steps.
