MISSOURI HOMESCHOOL LAW
Compulsory
School Age: 7 - 16
Missouri
state law offers one legal homeschooling option, which is to operate a
homeschool. Children schooling under this option are required to
attend 1000 hours of instruction each year. Of these 1000 hours, a
minimum of 600 hours must be spent on the required subjects, which
include reading, math, social studies, language arts, and science.
Of these 600 hours, 400 must be spent in "the regular homeschool
location." Parents should keep attendance logs, records of
subjects covered and related activities, samples of coursework, and
evaluations. There are no parent/teacher qualifications, school
board notification, or testing requirements specified under Missouri
homeschool statutes.
