Nevada Homeschool Law - Homeschool State Laws
The state of Nevada requires your child to attend school from the age of 7 to 18 years old. Legal schooling options include the following:
The Nevada Homeschool Law requires you to file a Notice of Intent with your school district’s superintendent of schools. You will only need to file this notice once unless your personal information or situation changes.
Depending on your situation, you must file the Notice of Intent either:
before beginning to homeschool, or
within 10 days after officially withdrawing your child from public school, or
within 30 days of moving into the state of Nevada
The Notice of Intent will ask you for the following information:
your child’s full name, age, and gender
the name of the Nevada public school they last attended (if applicable)
the name and address of each parent who is filing
a prepared educational plan for your child (sample General Education Plan)
a signed statement by each parent that they have a legal right to homeschool the child
NOTE: When your Notice of Intent is received by the school district they will send you a written letter of acknowledgement as proof that you are complying with the Nevada Homeschool Law. They will also keep a copy of this letter for their own records.
(see legal reference #4 and #5)
