Important Note!  Home schooling is one of the options available for meeting the state’s compulsory attendance law, Section 167.031, RSMo. The Department of Elementary and Secondary Education does NOT regulate or monitor home schooling in Missouri. Neither the State Board of Education nor the Department have authority to issue regulations or guidelines concerning home schooling. Nonetheless, we receive many questions from parents and educators about this topic. The documents and resources listed below are intended to answer the most common questions about home schooling.

And yet the mental well-being of our adolescents is among the worst in Europe: one in 10 teenage girls has self-harmed. Child obesity is increasing.
