Homeschooling Texas Message Board
There is also a group called "North Texas Home Educators".. I'll keep looking for their link...
Homeschooling is a breeze in Texas.....no rules, basically........ I pulled my kids out of public school and began homeschooling a few years before we moved from Texas. All I did was send a letter to the principals of their schools telling them our decision.
There are no State tests, no curriculum requirements,no followups........ but, I am not aware of any school district that allows homeschooled children to participate in any of their activities such as band or choir..... you might ask around about that though.......
Having lived in several areas of Texas, I would say the DFW area is one of the nicest, but get ready for the traffic...... it is horrendous..........
And, even though I'm not there, Welcome to Texas!
