Vancouver and Clark County
Washington Private
Schools
The popularity of home schooling has grown steadily since
it was made legal in 1985. At least 1,650 students
were home-schooled in Clark County last year. More are
educated primarily at home but are enrolled in public school
programs that cater to home-schoolers. The
Battle Ground School District offers Home-Link in Battle
Ground and Camas. The Evergreen School District opened
the most recent home-schooling partnership with Home Choice
Academy. The children usually attend a few hours a week to
work on subjects that are difficult for their parents to do at home,
such as chemistry and higher math, or extracurricular activities
such as band. Washington State does not require that
home-schooling families work with public school districts, although
parents must file a "Declaration of Intent" each year in the
district where they live. For more information about the
rules, call the Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction
at 360-725-6175 or visit the
Washington Home Based Educational Site.
Several Clark County groups have formed to support parents
and organize group trips and activities. Here are a few:
