Academic Requirements

Alabama Hope Academy has tried to continue to have only Alabama state laws.

We feel it unnecessary to put more rules, requirements on the parents, and our homeschool families than the state requires. We have made one exception on our required school days. The state law does not require any certain number of days for a homeschooler in Al. But under Al tutor law it requires 140 days of school per year. Now we all know public and traditional private schools have more like 180. So, we do require only 140 days per year. (However, you may go over that amount as much as you would like.)  Yes, you may homeschool 365 days per year, provided you are enrolled with us for the whole entire 365 days.



 Any work or learning time must be while you are enrolled. For example, your child learns something you would like to be credited for, during the summer and you want it to be counted on his or her transcript, but you did not re-enroll on time, Nor were you enrolled for upcoming school year then those grades, credits etc. will not count.  If you did re-enroll on time and it is summer, and your child learns, yes it will count.

We want the student to receive credit for all work done. 


The Alabama State Law requires us to notify the public superintendent when a child does not re-enroll, transfers or withdraws. AHA does this as soon as we receive transfer or withdrawal.  Our re-enrollment is May 1st of each year. If child is not re enrolled on or before May 15th, Then by the first week of June we notify public school that child did not re-enroll.  Can child  re enroll at later date? Yes, but instead of filling out just one form with re enrollment info you will be required to fill out all new enrollment forms again and notify your public superintendent again. You may have to pay late  enrollment fee as well. We have tried to make re enrollment effortless. You can pay re enrollment at any time during the year, after September, online at this site.  You can set up reoccurring payments so each year it is automatically taken out on May 15th.  Now really, could it be any easier? If you have any suggestions let us know at contact@alabamahopeacademy.com . Put suggestions in subject line.
