  • Home schools are required to provide basic communication skills, reading, writing literature and fine arts, social studies, history, geography and government, health and physical education.
  • Parents must file a letter of intent each year and a full report for the first year.
  • The homeschool program must be accredited, or the parent must submit instructor qualifications.
  • Also, in the first year of homeschooling and in the 7th grade, immunization records must be submitted to the local school district.
  • Homeschools are predominately financed by the parents, however Minnesota does have a Nonpublic Pupil Aids that parent may claim by September 15th of each year through their public school district superintendent’s office.
