Public libraries are a rich resource for homeschooling parents and caregivers. This online resource guide was developed to help librarians support and meet the homeschooling needs in their community.

Alaska Home School Laws

Alaska Statewide Correspondence Schools

Alaska's Homeschooling Formats

  1. Parents may contact their local school district and select correspondence programs that the district has designed or supports. Each district correspondence program and student funding allotment will vary.
  2. Parents aren't limited to district correspondence programs. They may select a recognized statewide correspondence program that is sponsored by another school district in Alaska. Statewide programs are similar to the local school district option, except that parents will contact a school district in which they are not a residence. Statewide correspondence programs and the student funding allotment will vary.
  3. Parents may also elect to participate in the centralized option, which has evolved into the AK Virtual School. This statewide program provides a virtual classroom environment for students across Alaska. Some school districts have opted out of participating in the AK Virtual School, but parents residing in those school districts may still choose to have their children participate in the program.
