Homeschool rules and statewide help in New Hampshire

Since July 1, 2026, a declaration is optional except upon public-school withdrawal or to obtain public-school program access. The declaration identifies the child’s name, birth date, and address and is signed by a parent. There is no general annual filing deadline.

New Hampshire sets these rules:

• Subjects: Parents direct the home education program; current RSA 193-A does not prescribe a subject list or require the district’s calendar or hours.
• Testing: No annual evaluation or standardized-test requirement under RSA 193-A after July 1, 2026. Education Freedom Account participants follow a separate program.
• Records: RSA 193-A no longer requires a portfolio or annual assessment records. Families may keep progress records and optionally certify completion.
• Teachers: No state degree or teaching-license requirement for parents directing home education under RSA 193-A.

New Hampshire also has an education savings account that home-educated students can use.

• The Education Freedom Account directs state adequacy funding to home education, tutoring, classes, and other approved costs, with no income limit since 2025. The 2026-27 enrollment cap has been reached, so new applicants may be waitlisted.
• TheHomeschoolingCompany is an approved vendor for it.
