ReformK12.com: "No Child Left Behind" Backlash In Utah? of education. The US DoE folks will try to convince the utah cadre that it s in their best interest to take the money, and comply with the regulations. http://www.reformk12.com/archives/000093.nclk
Extractions: It's easy. Being that the feds have no business telling states how to run their schools (and they certainly lack the authority under the U.S. Constitution), all the state has to do is say "no thank you" to the millions of dollars in federal education programs. A Utah House committee last week unanimously advanced a bill sponsored by Rep. Margaret Dayton, R-Orem, to opt out of the law and forfeit at least $103 million it provides for programs and services that target disadvantaged students. House Bill 43 probably won't be debated on the floor until after a meeting Friday between lawmakers and officials from the U.S. Department of Education. The U.S. DoE folks will try to convince the Utah cadre that it's in their best interest to take the money, and comply with the regulations. We hope they politely decline.

State Laws And Regulations are scrambling to reform their education system, the a perspective on homeschooling, laws, and regulations. http://www.home-ed-magazine.com/HSRSC/hsrsc_lws.rgs.html
Extractions: BEFORE GOING FURTHER The HEM staff has been considering pulling these listings. The main reason is that as homeschooling becomes more widely accepted, and as states are scrambling to reform their education system, the situation becomes more complex. This makes overviews, listings and rankings less valid. We have, however, decided to keep these listings in place because they carry, at a minimum, a link to your state government. Additionally we hope reading cited code and at least one homeschooler's interpretation will help start to demystify legislation and encourage you to investigate further. When talking to new homeschoolers we often hear concerns about the law. Is homeschooling legal? Who do I have to notify? What do I have to teach? While the legalities are a concern that should not be ignored, neither should our response be automatic and not thought out carefully. There is no single source, no one true homeschooling authority. We all own the responsibility to think through laws and regulations on homeschooling. Of course you'll find those who disagree - an entire industry has grown up around the fact that there are differences of opinion on homeschooling's legal matters. What we offer here are overviews of laws and regulations compiled by knowledgeable homeschoolers. These files are not legal advice nor the final word on the subject. They are simply a starting point. To maintain our freedom to homeschool we will each need to go far beyond any convenient compilation or synopsis. We need to continue to do our own learning, lead our own research, and decide on our own actions.
