Your State-to-Schedule Blueprint

What Is Required

Mississippi requires an enrollment form for every compulsory-age learner with the local School Attendance Officer each year, currently by August 15. The parent keeps a copy and provides an organized educational program; the state page recommends using Mississippi college- and career-readiness standards but does not state a separate homeschool testing or curriculum-approval process. The companion includes the annual enrollment checklist, officer contact record, curriculum, attendance, work samples, and proof of filing.

Tier 3 State Companion: Editable, parent-reviewable 36-week Curriculum Summary Draft with student and grade/year details, parent and instructor fields, four nine-week review/report dates, and subject-by-subject scope, sequence, objectives, resources, methods, and progress evidence. It also adds local School Attendance Officer enrollment form, August 15 timing, and organized-program record. Parent review and submission remain required.

What Is Not Required

The guide separates mandatory steps from optional best practices and will not add a filing simply because a planner template exists.

Your Next Steps

Review and correct every generated field, confirm the current official source and local/pathway instructions, sign where appropriate, and submit any required notice, plan, report, evaluation, or other form yourself. K–5 Blueprint does not file on the family's behalf or guarantee agency acceptance.
