Homeschool PE in Virginia
Virginia gives families a choice: 180 days or 990 hours. PE is a natural way to fill those hours while keeping your child active and healthy.
These figures come from our state requirements registry, which names VA Code § 22.1-254.1 for Virginia. We hold that citation; nobody has yet checked each figure above against the statute text itself, and we would rather say so than imply otherwise. Requirements change — confirm with your district before relying on them. See what we hold for Virginia, open it in the checker, or read how we source this. This is a homeschool PE reference, not legal advice.
