"The decision rendered in Leeper vs. Arlington clearly establishes that students who are home schooled are exempt from the compulsory attendance requirement to the same extent as students enrolled in private schools."
The Governor of Texas says: "In Texas, we view home schooling as something to be respected and protected - respected for the energy and commitment of parents; protected from the interference of government. Texas does not index or monitor home school programs."
If a private or home school are not wholly or partially state tax funded, They are free from state regulation. Any home school is considered a private school, any private school not wholly or partially state tax funded, are free from state regulation.

Standards of Alternative Interventions:
Our objective is to provide applicable instructions in the various fields of Alternative Health care and application. There is no state or federal statute governing alternative health curriculum in Texas. Our teachers have degrees acquired through other Health Care and Alternative applicable on line colleges, which are rarely recognized by other four year State funded Universities or their branched colleges throughout North America.
Our curricula has been thoroughly researched and published in an assortment of documents, including but not limited to pharmacology courses. We believe the student will find our course studies to be quality based for learning Alternative applications of Natural Health care.
A few choices should be considered here to understand why we are not accredited through the TEA.
We prefer to remain free from being governed by any entity we have no vote within.
Our advisors cant promise that any of these courses will pass for college credits, but we can provide documentation of progress where requested, of any selected course. While some institutions readily accept these documentations as proof of course fulfillment, or requirement, there are others that will not. We have not, nor do we intend to seek accreditation through the U.S. Department of Education.
Common examples of credit transfer include credit for community college coursework and college-to-college course transfer and things like military training, work training, and credit-by-exam. The receiving institution decides what transfer credit it will accept, typically through the admissions or registrar’s office.
Transferring college credit is still not as easy or clear as it should be. Institutions vary in how they evaluate credits, who makes the decisions and when and how quickly they make those decisions. Because a decision not to accept transfer credit means more tuition to that college it is easy to be cynical about the process.
In a nutshell » we are a private school, not funded by any state, home based in the state of Texas. Relative to the guideline, “we do not absorb funding from the state”, we are one of many vocational entities considered “off the grid”.
