The full rule, in plain words: Send a notice to the superintendent of your school district of residence within five calendar days after starting home education, moving into a new district, or withdrawing from a public or nonpublic school, and by August 30 every year after. It gives your name and address, your child's name, and an assurance the child will be taught the required subjects. The exemption starts when the notice is received. The superintendent must acknowledge it in writing within 14 calendar days. The state offers an optional form.
