In the 1950 case People v. Levisen, the Illinois Supreme Court considered the case of parents who were convicted of violating a law requiring children (ages of 7 -16) to attend a public school. The parents in this case were Seventh Day Adventists who believed that educating their child at home was the best option. The court determined that the term "private school" included instruction given to a child at home, as long as the instruction was adequate. 

Now state bureaucrats want to regulate and oversee homeschooling families in the state by having students register, provide proof of immunizations, and make sure the curriculum meets their standards.

Please, kindly tell state lawmakers to get their own schools in order and leave homeschoolers alone.
