Indiana is a low-regulation, no-notice homeschool state. A homeschool is legally a non-accredited nonpublic school. Requirements: provide instruction equivalent to public schools in the English language for 180 days/year and keep attendance records. No notification, no required testing, no subject-specific reporting, no teacher qualifications. Compulsory school age is 7 to 18. The four core subject areas (ELA, math, science, social studies) are expected as 'equivalent instruction,' but the state does not audit content. (IC 20-33-2-4, IC 20-33-2-6, IC 20-33-2-21, IC 20-33-2-28, IC 20-30-2-3.)
Indiana requires NO notification or registration to begin homeschooling. A homeschool operates as a 'non-accredited nonpublic school.' The IDOE offers a VOLUNTARY online enrollment/registration form, which is strongly recommended (creates a paper trail and helps avoid truancy inquiries) but is not legally mandated.
Parents must maintain ATTENDANCE records sufficient to show 180 days of instruction; these may be requested/reviewed by the local school district or the IDOE (IC 20-33-2-28; IC 20-33-2-21). No portfolio, curriculum, or test records are required to be submitted. Records of academic work/transcripts are recommended for the parent's own use but not legally mandated.
