Arizona homeschool questions. Answered.
Clear, practical guidance for planning your homeschool year, keeping useful records, and finding the right learning support for your family.
File the affidavit of intent with your county school superintendent within 30 days after beginning homeschool. Keep the filed copy and any county confirmation with your permanent school records.
Arizona law identifies reading, grammar, mathematics, social studies, and science. Families can add electives, world languages, arts, technology, and career-focused study.

Maintain course titles, credits, grades, descriptions, and a graduation plan. Check any college, trade program, military, athletic, or scholarship requirements early.
No. ESA participation has separate eligibility, account, purchasing, and accountability rules. Review current Arizona Department of Education ESA guidance before enrolling or spending funds.
