What states require testing for homeschoolers?
Asked by families. Answered by Peabody editors from the sources below.
Peabody's state law pages, checked against statutes and state education department pages, found no testing or evaluation requirement for homeschoolers in 29 of the 49 states checked, and a test, an evaluation or a choice of either in most of the rest. The testing hub lists each state's wording with a link to its law page.
