There are two options if you choose to homeschool in Louisiana:
1. You can use the home study option.
2. You can homeschool as a private school.
For the private (nonpublic) school option you must submit a letter of intent notifying the Department of
Education by the 30th day after your school session begins. The letter needs to contain the following information: school
year, name of school, contact information, number of students enrolled and your signature.
You must register each year in order to be in compliance with Louisiana's compulsory attendance laws (R.S.
17:232 (C) and (D)).
