| Abstract: | United States homeschooling participation increased dramatically during the disruptions of the COVID-19 pandemic. Education scholars theorized that homeschool participation would recede along with pandemic disruptions. This study examines whether that theory proved true. I use longitudinal annual state-reported homeschool participation counts supplemented with other data in states and years where state data is not publicly available. I find a small and brief decline in homeschool participation one- and two-years post-pandemic. However, the majority of states for which data are available report increased homeschool participation three years after the pandemic height. Within this growth, I will discuss three interesting trends. |
