The homeschool law for most children (those not having disabilities) in Oregon is very straightforward. 1) Parents notify the educational service district of their intent to home educate when their child is 7 on September 1st or when they withdraw the child from school if he is older than 7. 2) Students are tested in grades 3, 5, 8 and 10 and the test results are turned in to the ESD if requested
