Oklahoma Homeschooling

Welcome to A to Z Home's Cool Oklahoma Homeschool page. Oklahoma is the only state in the U.S. where the right to homeschool is provided for in its constitution. This makes homeschooling in Oklahoma very easy and unregulated. Although school officials occasionally sends out notices requiring notification, this is not the law and is not recommended. All you are required to do is keep track of 180 days of school, teach the basics (reading, writing, math, science, citizenship, U.S. constitution, health, safety, physical education, conservation), and enjoy! One of several good contacts about homeschooling in Oklahoma is Cindy Downes at Oklahoma Homeschool. Others are in the links below. [Note: you may contact Cindy about Oklahoma Homeschooling concerns. Contact Ann Zeise, the webmaster, about general homeschooling concerns through the "Contact" link at the bottom of this page.]
