Most websites won't say this plainly, so we will — because knowing what the law doesn't ask of you matters as much as knowing what it does:
  • No minimum number of school days or instructional hours is set by law.
  • No specific list of required subjects is written into the law.
  • No portfolio submission to officials is required.
