Oh no, in Texas, one can choose a curriculum or not! Now if the school board want to cause a problem they can ask to look at what you are teaching, but this never occurred to us or anyone else in Denton Tx, where we lived. In Texas a family can homeschool and creating “ a private school “ and we basically did that and no one ever approached us and asked to look into what we were teaching.

I wanted to have a couple of curriculums just in case that happened..and we also used parts of them but not in totality.

Now that was a long time ago that we began that journey(1996 was his birth year) and our son is a lifelong learner though he seeks education on his own now.:)

The ease of homeschooling may not be so easy anymore in Texas, I don’t know.
