by Christina Yeager

​Wyoming is different than the other states we’ve covered so far. One of the big differences is the fact that they set up the homeschooling process almost like a trial run to see if you have the ability to homeschool. Other than that their laws and regulations pretty much require the same standards as the other four states. Find out how to get started with homeschooling in Wyoming.​

Making it to the Olympics is one thing but making it to the Olympics and winning a silver medal is another. Steele Johnson became one of the youngest divers to win a silver medal after achieving a score of 491.01 in the men’s synchronized 10 meter platform diving with his partner David Boudia. That’s pretty amazing! Steele Johnson really had the chance to hone in and focus on his diving career because of his choice to homeschool through an online private school, Laurel Springs.

Homeschooling Heroes: Hailie Deegan

Racing is a hard sport. It’s very intense and requires a lot of time, energy, and effort. You also gotta have a stomach for it. A lot of the racers travel at speeds up to 200 miles an hour! People rarely make it into NASCAR and when they do it takes a long time to get their name out there because of the fierce competition. This wasn’t the case for 18 year old Hailie Deegan. Hailie Deegan only homeschooled for one year prior to completing her high school education, but it allowed her to practice, which could lead to a prominent career in Nascar.​

Homeschooling Regulations by State: West Virginia

West Virginia’s laws and regulations for homeschooling are very similar to Virginia’s laws. There’s the usual NOI, the parent requirements (not as stringent as Washington), the compulsory age is pretty much the same. The major difference is the standardized testing. West Virginia actually gives parents two options for fulfilling the standardized testing requirement for their child. We’ll cover those options in the standardized testing section of this post. Without further ado let’s jump into the laws and regulations of homeschooling in West Virginia.

The homeschooling laws for Washington are a bit more strict. Every state has the same basic set of laws for homeschooling. Ensuring the child’s safety, some sort of parent certification, etc. these are laws that you’ll find in pretty much every state. Washington has these laws only they are a little more enforced and require more effort to pursue homeschooling. Let’s jump right into the laws and regulations for Washington starting with the compulsory school attendance age.

A lot of times people create the stereotype that homeschoolers don’t get out much or lack social experience or don’t know how to function in the real world. These homeschooling heroes proved otherwise. We will focus on celebrities who made it big to achieve their dreams. The one thing they all had in common is the fact that they were homeschooled at some point in their life. Misty Copeland is a professional ballet dancer that defied the ‘normal’ standards and blew the world away with her talent.
