What to keep in Alaska
Good records are your best protection if anyone ever questions your homeschool. In Alaska, keep an organized set: a running log of what you teach and when, samples of your child's work, and any assessment or filing documents the state asks for. Depending on the rules you'll keep some at home and file others, so keep everything organized and dated.
Attendance and hours
Alaska does not mandate a specific number of instructional hours. Families have flexibility in determining their own schedule and pace of learning.

No, Alaska does not legally require you to maintain a portfolio. However, keeping records of your homeschool activities is still highly recommended for your own reference and for potential college applications or if you ever need to demonstrate educational progress.
How to organize your records
Keep one folder per child per school year: a running activity log, a stack of work samples, any test or evaluation results, and copies of anything you filed. Homeschool Fox does this automatically, logging hours by subject from your phone, tagging core versus non-core, and generating the Alaska reports and year-end summaries you may need.
