<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\nHow to Start Homeschooling in North Carolina <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The North Carolina Division of Non-Public Education (DNPE) has worked hard to make homeschooling an approachable and enriching experience for families in the state.
Once you decide that homeschooling is right for your family, you\u2019ll need to submit a Notice of Intent to homeschool through the DNPE website. As a home educator in North Carolina, you\u2019ll also need to keep records and administer annual tests.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n\n\nSubmitting Your Notice of Intent to Homeschool in North Carolina<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Before you can begin homeschooling, you must submit a Notice of Intent (NOI) to homeschool to the North Carolina Division of Non-Public Education (DNPE). You can submit an NOI each school year from July 1st through the end of April. You can access the online NOI<\/a> through the DNPE website. <\/p>\n\n\n\nTIP:<\/strong> You must include specific things in your NOI, including your contact information as the Chief Administrator, diploma documentation, child\u2019s age and name, and the address and name of the homeschool.<\/p>\n\n\n\nH3: Choosing a Homeschool Name<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nThe state recommends choosing a simple name that would be appropriate on a high school diploma. Keep in mind that once you have filed your NOI with the chosen name, you cannot change it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n- The school name must be less than 30 characters.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- You may not use the words: Charter, college, elementary, grade, grammar, high, incorporated (or Inc.), junior, kindergarten, lower, middle, primary, public, residence, schooling, secondary, seminary, senior, the, university, or upper.<\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Do not use the name of your curriculum in your school name.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- You cannot use The <\/em>or A <\/em>at the beginning of your school name.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
If you submit your NOI without including a name choice, your homeschool will automatically be given a name using your last name (Example: Johnson School).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

In North Carolina, a home educator must have a high school diploma or equivalent to qualify. There are no further certifications or licenses required to establish your homeschool. Home educators must also reside in North Carolina.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/printables-email-registration>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n\n\nLegal Requirements to Homeschool in North Carolina <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
North Carolina has mapped out very specific requirements for homeschooling. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Home educators need to have a high school diploma or GED and must register their homeschool with the DNPE. You must also assess your homeschooled child each year through standardized testing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n\n\n\nBack to Top<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\nMandatory School Age in North Carolina <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Compulsory attendance requirements kick in when your child is 7 years old. They will need to be enrolled in a public, private, or home-based school until they graduate or reach 16 years old.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TIP:<\/strong> Homeschoolers must attend school nine months of the year, but the exact amount of hours is not mandated.<\/p>\n\n\n\nThe DNPE has created this attendance tracking document<\/a> for your use. It is not mandatory to use it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n\n\nNorth Carolina Homeschool Subject Requirements<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
There are no subject or curriculum requirements when homeschooling in North Carolina. Home educators are free to choose an educational approach that connects best with their child and goals. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n\n\n\nBack to Top<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\nNorth Carolina Homeschool Record-Keeping Requirements <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Home educators must keep a record of immunizations and exemptions, attendance, and any standardized testing results for each of their students. The state also recommends keeping a daily log of lesson plans, but this is not required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n\n\nNorth Carolina Homeschool Assessments and Evaluations <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Home educators in North Carolina must test their students using a nationally standardized test or equivalent measurement at least once a year. The test you choose should assess their achievement in English grammar, reading, spelling, and math.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After the testing is completed, you’ll need to keep your child’s test scores “available” at the principal office of your homeschool for one year. This means that the scores should be easily accessible for any duly authorized representative of the DNPE who may want to inspect them during an annual review.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TIP:<\/strong> There are a variety of test options. Home educators are allowed to administer some of the tests, and you can connect with a homeschool group if you\u2019re interested in a group testing environment. You can find a list of available tests and contact information here<\/a>. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.homeschoolplus.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Assessment.png\")

All students in North Carolina are required to be immunized or have a valid exemption on file. The state accepts both medical and religious exemptions at this time. Learn more through the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services<\/a>.
You will need this documentation when submitting your NOI. We recommend keeping your child\u2019s immunization records as part of your homeschool file.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n\n\nResources for Homeschool Families in North Carolina <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Homeschooling families often seek ways to enrich their children’s education, foster socialization, and find support throughout their homeschooling journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One effective approach is to join homeschool groups, co-ops, or formal associations. These networks help families tap into a wealth of resources and opportunities to connect with other homeschoolers, share ideas, and learn from one another. Find out more about these groups, sports, field trips, and public school access below. <\/p>\n\n\n\nJoining groups and organizations help homeschool families create a fulfilling and enjoyable homeschooling experience, while also building a supportive community of like-minded individuals who are on the same journey.<\/em><\/em><\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.homeschoolplus.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Homeschool-Resources.png\")

<\/figure>\n\n\n\nBack to Top<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\nPublic School Access For North Carolina Homeschoolers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
There is not a law in North Carolina that grants homeschooled students the right to participate in public school classes and activities. Instead, the decision to allow homeschooler participation lies with individual schools, resulting in varying policies across different districts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TIP: <\/strong>If homeschooled students wish to participate in public school classes or activities, they should contact their local school and inquire about their district’s policy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n\n\nHomeschool Groups and Co-ops in North Carolina <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Homeschooling families in North Carolina can enjoy numerous benefits by joining or creating a homeschool group or co-op. These connections can help build a sense of community and enable children to form friendships with other homeschoolers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TIP:<\/strong> Homeschool groups often organize group activities, such as field trips or physical education, which can enrich the educational experience. As a home educator, you can also connect with seasoned homeschoolers through in-person meet-ups or online support groups.<\/p>\n\n\n\nHomeschool co-ops are another excellent option, as they allow home educators with diverse talents to share the teaching responsibilities. Children can benefit from exposure to a variety of teaching styles and the opportunity to learn alongside other homeschoolers. North Carolina state law allows this style of homeschooling as long as all teachers have a high school diploma or equivalent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To find a group or co-op near you in North Carolina, you can begin networking online or ask for recommendations from other homeschooling families. Here are some popular online groups to begin your search.

The statewide homeschool association, NCHE, has the goal of public school sports access for homeschoolers in North Carolina. At this time, there is no law granting that right.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Instead, they have established a sports program for homeschoolers across the state. The league offers all the sports you would find in a typical high school.
