Requirements to Home School
Procedures to homeschool a student is governed by state statute and establishes the following guidelines. (see Utah Code §53G-6-204). A parent or guardian desiring to homeschool their child must:
File Notice of Intent
A parent/guardian must provide a one-time initial notification of intent to homeschool with the Granite School District’s Home School Office for each child when beginning to homeschool. Intent to Home School. (PDF)
Please send this notification via email to Jenn Vargo
Receive Excuse Certificate
After the notice of intent is received, an excuse certificate acknowledging the homeschool program will be sent to the parent/guardian within 30 days. A certificate will only be sent one time. Please keep your certificate for each remaining school year. If you remove your student from Home School please advise the Home School Office.
Parent Responsibility
There are no required days of instruction nor required subjects for homeschoolers in Utah. The parent is solely responsible for the “selection of instructional materials and textbooks; the time, place, and method of instruction; and the evaluation of the home school instruction.
NOTE:
Utah Code §53G-6-204 was amended on May 7, 2025, replacing the affidavit requirement with a notice of intent. The rest of the requirements remain the same. If a parent/guardian previously filed an affidavit for a student, they are not required to submit a new notice of intent for that child.
