Hello again Shlezin
According to the Oklahoma Home School website, a $300 minimum, up to
$1000+ per year is recommended per student. It will cost more the
first year and in high school.

It has also shown that those who spend less than $200 per child per
year on homeschool curriculum can get as good results as those who
spend $400-$599 per child per year.

$450 to $600 per child per year
?As a final thought on curriculum, you may wonder about the cost of
purchasing curriculum materials for your children. Home educators
spend a very wide range of amount of money on educational materials
and services. You may spend as little as $50 per child per year. You
may spend as much as $1,000 per child. Research that I have done
indicates that $450 to $600 per child per year is very common.?

=========================================
500-$ 600 per year, per child
? A problem that faces most new home schoolers is the vast amount of
such curriculums to choose from. There are far more materials, many of
which are quite costly and include student test books, text book,
teacher manual, etc.. Some up to 5 or 6 needed items for only one
subject for one grade. It's overwhelming and unnecessary. It is not
necessary to spend the estimated average cost of 500-$ 600 per year,
per child.??

How much does it cost to home school?
"Home schooling can cost anywhere from $0 to $2,500 per year. A family
can create an entire curriculum from materials available free online,
from the public library, and the classes and books available at the
Bend and Redmond Home Program Resource Centers. Cost depends on your
philosophy. If you use a boxed curriculum, you can purchase a very
nice one for as little as $300 per year, with optional
correspondence-teacher review services for somewhere near $200-$500.
You can spend as much as $2500 per year in the boxed curriculum, this
cost includes an advisory teaching service, networking, private
"networked" park days, field trips, resource libraries, and many other
extracurricular resources."
