These figures come from our state requirements registry. We hold no statutory citation for South Carolina yet, and nobody has checked the figures above against a statute text; we would rather say so than invent one. Requirements change — confirm with your district before relying on them. See what we hold for South Carolina, open it in the checker, or read how we source this.

South Carolina Homeschool PE Overview

South Carolina offers three approval pathways: the school district (Option 1), SCAIHS (Option 2), or an accountability association (Option 3). Under Options 2 and 3 the association, not the district, holds the records and reviews them.

Key Requirements

  • Choose approval pathway (Option 1, 2, or 3)
  • Submit semi-annual progress reports
  • PE can count toward 4.5-hour daily minimum

Reporting & Verification

Reporting cadence: Semi-annual

Verification: Option-dependent: district, SCAIHS, or association

Documents required:

  • Semi-annual progress reports

No dated deadline schedule is on file for this jurisdiction.

PE Credit & Standards

We hold no South Carolina-specific credit rule. The credit calculator uses the conventional 120 hours for a full Carnegie credit; confirm the figure your evaluator or umbrella school applies.

How Spatrian Helps South Carolina Families

  • Documents PE even though the state does not mandate it, which is what a transcript and a college application read
  • Prints a one-page log sheet for each reporting period, so the report is a download rather than an evening
  • Issues a transcript with a fingerprint an evaluator can check at spatrian.com/verify without an account
  • Names the documents and deadlines it holds for the state, and says where it holds none
