Hi there. We are looking at moving to Oregon, and are curious about the homeschool requirements. I understand that my kids need to take assessments at certain grade levels. Do they need to go in to a school to take the assessments? Thank you.
Hello! You can find a summary of the homeschool laws for Oregon here:
Here’s the gist of it: https://oceanetwork.org/summary-homeschool-law/
1) You notify your ESD that you’ll be homeschooling
2) You test your children at the end of grades 3, 5, 8, and 10 by August 15th and use a qualified tester. You keep the results on file to submit to your ESD if they request it (some never do, some always do). You do not need to go to a school to take an evaluation.
We hope that helps! Do read through the information we provide in the summary link as well as the following:
