What do I need to know about home education in Wisconsin?

To Know:

Attend the CHEW Annual Conference

Join us for #CHEW23 at the Kalahari Resort in Wisconsin Dells, March 30th-31st, 2023. Powerful keynote speakers, a large exhibit hall, many workshops, and lots of time for fellowship! Almost 2,000 people joined us in April 2022 in the Dells for #CHEW22.

Competitive Sports?

Since 2015, students who have filed a PI-1206 are eligible to play on their local public schools sports teams. Learn more from HSLDA.

What’s the Law?

Read the law for yourself courtesy of the Wisconsin DPI.

Know what the words mean

“Homeschool” is not found in Wisconsin statutes, but “Home-based private educational program” is. You can file a PI-1206 to report your HBPEP enrollment here.

Other at-home options include hybrids (University-Model schools that are part-school, part-home), virtual charter schools (secular public), and virtual private schools (can be religious).
