Can someone tell me how hard it is to homeschool in LA.? What do I have to do to satisfy the state or county? What are my requirements? My daughter is enrolled in a school in PA. and I homeschool her with her books at home. We are moving to Alexandria. Does anyone know of H.S groups in the area? Is there a P.E. or some outlet for Homeschoolers there?

Smile May I suggest this link

if your interested in finding out about Homeschooling in Louisiana.. as I had thought about it last year but since then we have moved from one parish to another and the school my son goes to now is much much better and he is much happier.

Homeschooling in Louisiana click on Louisiana Resources on How to Legally Homeschool in Louisiana.. also if you do a search at yahoogroups there are groups for parents in LA that offer assistance as well as support.

It is very easy to get set up to homeschool here. Simply contact the School Board Office in the parish you will reside. They will set you up with the paperwork. Mail the paperwork in and you should get the approval within a month. I have never heard of anybody being denied the option to homeschool.

We have homeschooled for years as the schools in the parish I live in are a joke. We use a disc set thru "Switched On Schoolhouse" which you can find used ones on Ebay at a reasonable price and they keep their resale value.

At the end of the year, take your child to the school board office and they will take a test. It is good to run copies off of some of their work if you are using a computer course for homeschooling, just incase they ask to see some of the work.

Good luck.
