Gail Withrow's Home Education Site
  "Texas homeschoolers have it relatively easy. Homeschools here are considered as private schools, and private schools in Texas are not regulated by the state. We've had our share of challenges, though, most notably from the Texas Education Agency back in the 80s when they were pushing to have homeschoolers arrested on truancy charges. TEA lost that battle, but the war was only just beginning. "
