Compulsory Attendance
Ages 5 to 18
Notification / Registration
No state notification or registration. Homeschools operate as private schools.
How a Cover School Helps
Oklahoma has no state oversight of private schools. Cover schools provide official school-of-record services, report cards, and transcripts.
Curriculum
No state-mandated curriculum for private school students.
Attendance
Children must receive education for the full term the schools of the district are in session (70 O.S. §10-105) — the district term is the reference, not a fixed statutory day-count for private/home schools.
Records & Testing
No state-required records, but keeping attendance/grades is best practice. No state testing required.
Teacher Requirements
No teacher certification required.
