How To Get Started...
   
Homeschooling is a commitment to your children and a serious decision that should be made by both parents.  Provide a strong foundation for your homeschool by prayerfully considering your decision to be responsible for your child’s education.  As a parent, you are uniquely equipped to teach your child.  You are the person who knows the most about your child’s learning styles and special needs because you have been working with and learning about your child since birth.  
 
In order to homeschool,
You will need to begin by researching about homeschooling and planning for your school.  Read some of the many excellent books that have been written about homeschooling, visit homeschool websites and try to locate other homeschooling families or join a local support group.  All these activities will assist you in learning about homeschooling and how to get started. 
 
You need to be familiar with the law.  Currently, Indiana law has very few requirements: Children must attend school 180 days, parents must keep attendance records, and children must start school no later than age 7. 
 
Plan your school calendar in a way that fits your family best.  You may choose to have year round school, follow the traditional school calendar, or develop a schedule that works for you.
