Homeschool Laws in Oklahoma

Oklahoma protects homeschooling in its state constitution — no notice, no testing, just teach 180 days.

Yes, homeschooling is legal in Oklahoma and it's the only state to explicitly protect homeschooling in its state constitution (Article XIII, Section 4). There's no notice of intent required, no registration, no standardized testing, no curriculum approval, and no annual reports. The only requirement is 180 days of instruction per year. If your kid was enrolled in public school, you may want to send a withdrawal letter to the district. Otherwise the state leaves you completely alone.
