Who has to test their home schooler?
Under North Carolina law, http://www.ncdnpe.org/, each home school registered with the Department of Non-Public Education (DNPE) must have a nationally standardized achievement test administered annually to each student at least age 7 and not yet age 16 (unless applying for an NC driver’s license). If your child starts the school year at 16 and is listed with DNPE you need to test him/her. To learn more about other state’s homeschool laws refer to the Laws section of the Home SchoolLegal Defense Association website at http://www.hslda.
