Getting Started - Laws
Are you just dipping your toes into considering homeschooling? Well, this is the page for you. We know that when we first considered homeschooling, we rushed to find the best curriculum... but hold on! There is a step that you should do first that many don't consider right away. The legal side of homeschooling. With that being said, this is not legal advice. This is one-parent-to-another advice. It is your responsibility to know your homeschooling laws.
In TN you can find them here: https://www.tn.gov/education/families/school-options/home-schooling-in-tn.html.
Many of us go the Umbrella Route. Here is a list of Umbrellas our members recommend:
There are a few of us going the Independent route. It is best to get advice from them parent to parent. We recommend joining our Facebook Group and meeting these homeschoolers yourself. https://www.facebook.com/chattinclusivehomeschoolers
Now for the other three questions we know you will ask: curriculum, socializing, and financing. We have dedicated pages here coming soon for those questions. Information is always changing, so the best way to keep up is to stay plugged into a community. We have a community here for you. Please find us on our Facebook Group we would love to have you.
