Do I need to give my child tests?

As the administrator of your own homeschool, you choose how to evaluate your child’s progress, including whether or not to use tests or other assessments in your homeschool. If you feel that testing is the best choice for your child, you choose the test that you administer and you decide how to use the results. When your child is homeschooling, you DO NOT send any of your test results to any school or state officials.

WHPA provides information about homeschooling in Wisconsin. WHPA does not provide specific legal advice to any specific individuals in the context of any specific matters. It is the responsibility of each homeschool administrator/parent or guardian to read original source material and make decisions on compliance for themselves. When you file the PI-1206 Homeschool Report with the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction, you take full responsibility for understanding and complying with the laws outlined on that form. WHPA does not endorse or provide curriculum suggestions or specific materials for any particular educational approach.
