Capitol Day is coming up soon! Oklahoma has the longest-running Homeschool Capitol Day in the entire nation – and it has paid off by making us the most free state for homeschooling. Join us for Capitol Day 2026 on February 3!
Capitol Day is the primary vehicle through which Oklahoma homeschoolers make their voice known to their legislators. We have hosted Capitol Day every year for over 40 years to ensure that Oklahoma remains the best state in the nation for homeschooling freedom.
