"Students are considered to be homeschooled if (1) they are ages 5–17 in a grade
equivalent to at least kindergarten and no higher than 12th grade; (2) their
parents report them as being schooled at home instead of at a public or private
school for at least part of their education; and (3) their part-time enrollment
in public or private schools does not exceed 25 hours a week. Students who are
schooled at home only because of a temporary illness are not considered to be
homeschooled students." Source:
