Is it legal to homeschool your child in Virginia?

In Virginia, it is legal to homeschool your child, provided you comply with specific state laws. Parents must notify their local school district of their intent to homeschool by filing a notice of intent each year. Additionally, they must demonstrate that the parent or guardian providing the instruction has the necessary qualifications, which typically include having a high school diploma or equivalent. Parents must also submit an annual evaluation to the school division, which can be in the form of a standardized test result, an evaluation from a qualified evaluator, or an assessment by a licensed teacher.

Trivia: Virginia is known for its Virginia Homeschoolers organization, a statewide homeschooling association that provides resources and support to homeschooling families.
