Oklahoma Homeschool Laws

In Oklahoma, there are no reporting and testing requirements for homeschool programs. As long as you teach for 180 days, you can legally operate a homeschool program following your own guidelines.

While there are no statutes requiring that certain subjects be taught, some Oklahoma courts have suggested that homeschool education should be equivalent or comparable to a public school education.

As mentioned above, all you need to do to homeschool in Oklahoma is teach for 180 days, and (to be safe) teach subjects similar to what’s taught in the state’s public schools.
