Homeschooling in Tennessee

Three Hearts Academy partners with parents in their homeschooling journey. However we are not a school, therefore families must comply with the Tennessee Homeschooling law regarding umbrella school registration. (TCA-49.6) Additionally as we are not a school, nor are we an umbrella school, we do not offer official transcripts or proof of enrollment to meet truancy laws, or special programs for those with special academic or behavioral needs. Incoming students must be in good standing in the areas of academics, discipline and attendance and must be registered with an umbrella school in the state of TN. We do not accept students who have been suspended or expelled from prior academic institutions.

Also, a TNDoE school district may still require parents to provide them other evidence that their child is enrolled in an accredited online school. Verify with your school district using the list of TN Home School Coordinators below. Enrolling with Kolbe Academy may still need to submit a completed:

Three Hearts Academy works closely with Kolbe Academy, a long-standing acredited Catholic school, and our choices in curriculum are approved by them. Therefore, one option for Three Heart families is to sign up with Kolbe Academy for their umbrella school. If you choose to go with Kolbe Academy, they will notify the local school district on behalf of your family enrolled in Three Hearts. https://www.kolbe.org
