Schools and Child Care Tips.
If you choose to educate your child at home,
the state of North Carolina requires that you establish a "school" in
your home. You must: 1) notify the Department of Administration,
Division of Non-Public Education of your intent to operate a school,
include your school's name and address, and name of chief administrator;
and 2) tell the child's current school that you have notified DNPE and
that you are withdrawing your child from the school. It is best to
document your decision with a letter and give the date at which you will
start home-schooling. For more information about home-schooling
requirements, visit
