Step by step

1
Understand Wyoming's homeschool law
Wyoming is one of the most flexible states for homeschool families with no mandated hour or day minimums.
-
2
Withdraw from public school (if enrolled)
Wyoming doesn't require a formal withdrawal letter or notice of intent to move a child from public school to homeschooling. Even so, a short written notification to the current school is a good idea so the district can close out attendance records and avoid truancy follow-ups. Rather than hand-writing the withdrawal letter, Homeschool Fox produces a pre-formatted PDF ready to send to the district.

3
Plan your subjects
Wyoming requires instruction in the following subjects: reading, writing, math, civics, history, literature, and science. Beyond these requirements, you have flexibility to add subjects that interest your family.
