This chapter does not affect private schools that receive no chapter funds or services, home schools, or the freedom of private, religious, and home schools from Federal curriculum control. It also does not require State or local agencies to control those schools’ curricula.
(a) A private school receiving no funds or services under this chapter is not affected by this chapter. A student attending such a school need not take an assessment mentioned in this chapter.
(b) A home school is not affected, whether State law treats it as a home school or private school. A student taught at home need not take an assessment mentioned in this chapter.
(c) This chapter does not permit, allow, encourage, or authorize Federal control over any aspect of a private, religious, or home school, regardless of how State law treats a home school. But this section does not bar those schools from chapter programs or services.
(d) This chapter does not require a State or local educational agency receiving chapter funds to mandate, direct, or control a private or home school’s curriculum, whether or not State law treats the home school as private. Chapter funds may not be used for that purpose.
