Whether you\u2019re just beginning to explore homeschooling or looking for a refresher on the process, this guide walks you through the steps with calm, practical advice. You don\u2019t need to have it all figured out at once\u2014just start where you are, and we\u2019ll help you build from there.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<!--more-->\r\n\r\n<h2>How Do I Start Homeschooling in Pennsylvania?<\/h2>\r\n<p>Pennsylvania has a clearly defined process for beginning a home education program. If your child is already enrolled in public or private school, you\u2019ll need to file paperwork before starting.<\/p>\r\n<p>Here\u2019s what to do:<\/p>\r\n\t<ol>\r\n\t\t<li>Submit a notarized <a href=\"https:\/\/homeschoolpennsylvania.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/Affidavit-Form.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">affidavit<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/homeschoolpennsylvania.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/CHAP-Unsworn-Declaration.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">unsworn declaration<\/a> to your local school district superintendent. This includes:\r\n\t\t\t<ul>\r\n\t\t\t\t<li>your child\u2019s name, age, home address, and telephone number<\/li>\r\n\t\t\t\t<li>assurance that all subjects are taught in English<\/li>\r\n\t\t\t\t<li>an outline of proposed educational objectives<\/li>\r\n\t\t\t\t<li>evidence of immunizations or exemption<\/li>\r\n\t\t\t\t<li>evidence of health and medical services that are required by law<\/li>\r\n\t\t\t\t<li>certification that your homeschool program will comply with 24 P.S. \u00a7 13-\t\t\t1327.1<\/li>\r\n\t\t\t\t<li>your qualification (a high school diploma or equivalent)<\/li>\r\n\t\t\t\t<li>certification that the homeschool supervisor, all adults living in the home, and any persons having legal custody of the homeschooled children have not been convicted of certain criminal offenses within the past five years<\/li>\r\n\t\t\t<\/ul>\r\n\t\t<\/li>\r\n\r\n\t\t<li>File this paperwork before the start of homeschooling, and then refile each year by August 1st.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\t\t<li>Once filed, you can begin instruction right away\u2014no waiting period or approval required.<\/li>\r\n\t<\/ol>\r\n\r\n<p>If your child has never been enrolled in school, the affidavit is required once they reach age 6.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h2>What Are Pennsylvania\u2019s Homeschooling Requirements?<\/h2>\r\n<p>Pennsylvania\u2019s home education law (Act 169) outlines a few important rules. The process may sound official, but once you understand the flow, it becomes manageable, and many families find that it helps add structure to their year.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Compulsory Attendance<\/h3>\r\n<p>Children ages 6 to 18 must receive an education. Homeschooling fulfills this requirement when done in compliance with state law.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Instructional Time<\/h3>\r\n<p>You\u2019ll need to provide instruction for either:\r\n\t<ul>\r\n\t\t<li><span class=\"bold\">180 school days per year<\/span>, or<\/li>\r\n\t\t<li><span class=\"bold\">900 hours (elementary) \/ 990 hours (secondary)<\/span><\/li>\r\n\r\n<p>You don\u2019t have to stick to a rigid schedule\u2014just track your progress and aim for consistency across the year.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Required Subjects<\/h3>\r\n<p>Pennsylvania requires instruction in:<\/p>\r\n\t<ul>\r\n\t\t<li>English, including Spelling, Reading, and Writing<\/li>\r\n\t\t<li>Arithmetic<\/li>\r\n\t\t<li>Civics<\/li>\r\n\t\t<li>History of the U.S. and Pennsylvania<\/li>\r\n\t\t<li>Health and physiology<\/li>\r\n\t\t<li>Physical education<\/li>\r\n\t\t<li>Music<\/li>\r\n\t\t<li>Art<\/li>\r\n\t\t<li>Geography<\/li>\r\n\t\t<li>Science<\/li>\r\n\t\t<li>Safety education, including regular and continuous instruction in the dangers and prevention of fires<\/li>\r\n\t<\/ul>\t\r\n\r\n<h2>Recordkeeping and Annual Evaluation<\/h2>\r\n<p>You must maintain a portfolio that includes: a log of reading materials used, samples of student work, the number of instructional hours or days, and a written evaluation completed by a qualified evaluator.  The evaluator will provide a written certification letter stating whether an appropriate education is occurring. This certification letter (not the entire portfolio) must be submitted to your school district superintendent by June 30.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Standardized testing is required in grades 3, 5, and 8. You may use the Pennsylvania System of School Assessment (PSSA) or other nationally normed tests such as the CAT, Iowa, Stanford, TerraNova, or Woodcock-Johnson. Results must be included in the portfolio.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h2>Curriculum & Homeschool Style<\/h2>\r\n<p>Pennsylvania gives you full control over how and what your child learns. You can design your own curriculum or use pre-made programs. Whether you prefer a structured, step-by-step approach or a more interest-led rhythm, you\u2019re free to choose the tools that suit your family best.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Many families find success with multisensory, mastery-based programs in reading, spelling, and math. We suggest:<\/p>\r\n\t<ul>\r\n\t\t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.allaboutlearningpress.com\/all-about-reading\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><span class=\"italic\">All About Reading<\/span><\/a> for colorful, systematic phonics and fluency<\/li>\r\n\t\t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.allaboutlearningpress.com\/all-about-spelling\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><span class=\"italic\">All About Spelling<\/span><\/a> for fun, step-by-step spelling mastery, and<\/li>\r\n\t\t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.allaboutlearningpress.com\/all-about-math\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><span class=\"italic\">All About Math<\/span><\/a> for engaging, hands-on math understanding.<\/li>\r\n\t<\/ul>\r\n\r\n<p>From project-based activities to nature studies, there are so many ways to make learning come alive at home.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h2>Alternate Homeschool Pathways in Pennsylvania<\/h2>\r\n<p>While many families homeschool independently under the affidavit process, there are other options available in Pennsylvania:<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Private Tutoring<\/h3>\r\n<p>You can homeschool under the supervision of a state-certified teacher. In this case, no affidavit or evaluator is needed, but the tutor must follow all required subjects and instructional time.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Umbrella or Satellite Schools<\/h3>\r\n<p>Some nonpublic schools allow families to enroll as homeschoolers. These schools may offer curriculum guidance, transcripts, or diplomas. Requirements vary depending on the school.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3>Cyber Charter or Online Programs<\/h3>\r\n<p>These are publicly funded virtual schools. While they offer at-home learning, students enrolled in these programs are considered public school students and not independent homeschoolers.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Each option has its own structure and requirements, so choose the one that works best for your child\u2019s needs and your family\u2019s goals.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h2>Helpful Tips for Homeschooling in Pennsylvania<\/h2>\r\n\t<ul>\r\n\t\t<li>Start with the basics. Begin with core subjects and a manageable schedule. You can always expand once you find your rhythm.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\t\t<li>Create a comfortable learning space. This doesn\u2019t have to be a full classroom\u2014just a consistent, distraction-free area where your child knows it\u2019s time to focus.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\t\t<li>Stay organized. Use a simple binder, digital folder, or planner to track attendance, lessons, and work samples.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\t\t<li>Find your community. Local co-ops, field trip groups, and online forums are great places to connect with other homeschool families.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\t\t<li>Give yourself grace. Not every day will go perfectly\u2014and that\u2019s okay. Homeschooling is a learning curve for both you and your child.<\/li>\r\n\t<\/ul>\r\n\r\n<p>If you\u2019re new to homeschooling or want tips from veteran homeschoolers, check out these free resources:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.allaboutlearningpress.com\/blog\/how-to-start-homeschooling\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">How to Start Homeschooling<\/a><\/li>\r\n\t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.allaboutlearningpress.com\/blog\/teach-at-home-free-resources\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Free Resources for Teaching at Home<\/a><\/li>\r\n\t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.allaboutlearningpress.com\/blog\/organizational-tools-i-couldnt-homeschool-without\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">7 Tips for Staying Organized<\/a><\/li>\r\n\t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.allaboutlearningpress.com\/blog\/build-your-home-library\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">6 Inexpensive Ways to Build Your Home Library<\/a><\/li>\r\n\t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.allaboutlearningpress.com\/blog\/im-thinking-about-homeschooling-but\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">I\u2019m Thinking About Homeschooling, but\u2026<\/a><\/li>\r\n\t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.allaboutlearningpress.com\/blog\/what-i-wished-i-knew-before-homeschooling\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">What I Wish I Knew Before Homeschooling<\/a><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n<h2>Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\r\n \r\n<div class=\"collapse-card\">\r\n\t<div class=\"collapse-card__heading\">\r\n\t\t<div class=\"collapse-card__title\">\r\n\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" style=\"height: 2em;
