What Is Required
Texas recognizes a bona fide homeschool using a written curriculum that covers reading, spelling, grammar, mathematics, and good citizenship under the private-school exemption. TEA does not register, approve, monitor, or accredit homeschools and no annual state filing is required. When withdrawing from public school, a signed and dated parent letter stating that homeschooling has begun is sufficient under TEA guidance. The companion includes withdrawal/assurance, subject map, curriculum, and records.
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 written bona fide curriculum and reading, spelling, grammar, mathematics, and good-citizenship coverage, labeled as family records rather than a state filing. Parent review and submission remain required.
