Begin Homeschooling

Statement of Intent to Homeschool

ND Law

The statement of intent to homeschool must be submitted yearly for each child, ages 7 and above. It is submitted to the superintendent of your school district, five days prior to the start of your school year. If pulling out a child from public school, you can begin homeschooling five days following the submission of the statement of intent.

Since 1985, the ND Homeschool Association has been fighting for homeschool freedom in the state of North Dakota. Through many legal battles and legislation, we have achieved the right to homeschool in the state of ND with limited government intrusion.

Our publication provides you with all you need to know to homeschool in ND in one convenient place. Available as a PDF to print.
