SENATE CONCURRENT
RESOLUTION No. 15


        A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION urging the establishment of an interim study committee to examine the need for homeschool guidelines.

    Whereas, Homeschooling is increasing in popularity; recent statistics indicate that as many as 2,000,000 children are homeschooled, roughly 2% of the school-aged population of our country;

    Whereas, Homeschooling is legal in all 50 U.S. states, but the laws vary from state to state; and

    Whereas, Since it is likely that the number of homeschool children will continue to grow, it behooves the state of Indiana to study the possible need for some defined homeschooling guidelines: Therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate of the General Assembly

of the State of Indiana, the House of Representatives concurring:



    SECTION 1. That the legislative council is urged to establish a committee to examine the need for establishing homeschool guidelines.
    SECTION 2. That the committee, if established, shall operate under the direction of the legislative council and shall issue a final report when directed to do so by the council.
