Step by step

  1. 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. 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. 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.

  4. 4

    Set your hours or days target

    Wyoming does not mandate a specific number of instructional hours. Families have flexibility in determining their own schedule and pace of learning.

  5. 5

    Track your hours and keep records

    Log activities as they happen so hours, attendance, and subject coverage build up automatically. Homeschool Fox lets you log from your phone or by voice and generates a Wyoming-specific compliance report when you need it.
