Indiana Allows Homeschoolers to Play High School Sports

Beginning this fall, homeschoolers will be allowed to participate on high school sports teams in Indiana - provided they enroll in at least one class at a given school and meet other academic criteria. The Indiana High School Athletic Association made that determination Monday, two years after the issue was taken up and then dropped by the state's General Assembly. The new rule, effective with the 2013-14 school year, also applies to students at non-accredited private schools.

"The IHSAA has always been about participation," IHSAA commissioner Bobby Cox told the Evansville Courier & Press before Monday's vote. "This is a chance to extend that opportunity to participate. We aren't grounded in not allowing homeschooled students to play. Now, they can choose to play under these conditions, or they can choose not to. They have a choice."
