Puerto Rico Education Code For Homeschooling
This is not intended to be legal advice and is distributed
for information purposes only. Check for updates at your public
library.
Compulsory attendance - 6 to under 18.
Parent Qualification: There are no teacher qualification
requirements for non-governmental schools.
Standardized tests: Not required for non-governmental
schools.
There are no homeschool statutes per se, however these are
the alternative statutes allowing homeschooling:
- Instruction in the elementary and secondary school shall
be free and shall be compulsory in the elementary schools to
the extent permitted by the facilities of the state. Compulsory
attendance at elementary public schools shall not be construed
as applicable to those who receive elementary education in schools
established under non-governmental auspices.
- Attendance at public schools shall not be compulsory for
those who are receiving education in schools established under
the auspices of non-governmental entities.
- Most homeschools operate as non-governmental schools. Non-governmental
schools are not clearly defined or regulated by law. Only "primary
or secondary academic" schools which " declare, promises,
announces, or expresses the intention of granting certificates,
diplomas, degrees, or licenses" are required to be licensed.
It seems that only these private "diploma" schools
are under Puerto Rico's private school regulation.
