Children are God's gift to the world... 

You need to talk to the principal of his school to see how to go about doing this.

Holla!

Better first make absolutely sure that's what you want to do...Who's going to homeschool him and it that a real possiblity? I'm an educator and I have heard some drastic stories...but then again...I've heard great ones too.  The thing that I think is missing with homeschooling is socialization skills.  They're extremely important.  How will you make up for those skills?  If your mind's made up then contact your school district.  They'd be able to give you info.  You could even contact your state department of education. They'd really have the answers for you. Good Luck!!!

The previous answers are good ones.  Homeschooling is so wide spread now and there are some really solid laws protecting homeschooled children that the information out there is abundant.  You can homeschool through your school district.  You can sign them up with an accredited organization like BJU.  As far as socialization....a homeschooled child by law is permitted access to every service that a public school child is allowed.  They are permitted to take up to two classes through the high school (like lab science and P.E.)  They are permitted to join and try out for all athletic programs.  They cannot be discriminated against because they are homeschooled.  Truthfully, a homeschool child can get the best of both worlds if you the parent are proactive and willing to be extremely involved in the whole process.  Because your son is in high school it is crucial that you have some type of curriculum that keeps official records and a transcript for him if he plans to go on to college.
