H.B. No. 2674 is a legislative bill that seeks to prohibit the regulation of home school programs in Texas. The bill amends the Education Code by adding a new section, Section 1.010, which explicitly states that the Texas Education Agency, the State Board of Education, and any other educational institutions cannot adopt rules or policies that would regulate home school educational programs. This measure aims to ensure that home schooling remains free from governmental oversight and regulation.

The bill is set to take effect at the beginning of the 2025-2026 school year, with provisions for immediate effect if it receives a two-thirds majority vote from both houses of the legislature. If not, the bill will take effect on September 1, 2025. The bill has already passed both the House and Senate, indicating legislative support for the proposed changes to home school regulation in Texas.
