Important
Note! Home schooling is one of the options
available for meeting the state's compulsory attendance law,
Section
167.031, RSMo. The Department of Elementary and Secondary
Education does NOT regulate or monitor home schooling in Missouri.
Neither the State Board of Education nor the Department have authority
to issue regulations or guidelines concerning home schooling.
Public school districts should have a written board adopted
"assignment to grade level" policy which addresses the transfer
of
students from one school to another. This policy should address the
transfer of grades and credit requirements for that district. The
Department recommends requesting the policy from the enrolling district
for more information regarding that district's transfer policy.
Many school district policy manuals are available on that
district's
website.
The documents and resources listed below are intended
to answer the most common questions about home schooling.
