Homeschool Laws in Wyoming

Wyoming requires only a brief annual curriculum statement to the local school board — no testing, no oversight.

Yes, homeschooling is legal in Wyoming. You submit an annual statement of intent to your local school board describing the curriculum you'll use. The "curriculum" requirement is simply that you provide a "basic academic educational program" covering reading, writing, math, civics, history, literature, and science. No specific materials required, no standardized testing, no portfolio submission, no progress reports. WY has one of the simplest homeschool regimes in the country.
