West Virginia Home Educators Association Website
The West Virginia Home Educators Association Website is a good place to start. It appears a Notice of Intent must be given to the county superintendent or county board each school year. The homeschool code link above covers other requirements and procedures.
Always check directly with the official West Virginia Dept. of Education code to verify information. Even if some states may not require it, it is usually a good idea to let your last school know you will not be returning to avoid being counted as absent.

States are changing their information much more often than past years due to covid-19! We regularly checks links to make sure the state has not changed pages or page addresses, but if you find a link that doesn’t work, the main Department of Education page is included above in case you want to use their search feature to find the information yourself. For example, search for “schooling at home”, “homeschool”, “home school”, “home instruction”, “nonpublic”, or “compulsory school attendance”. However, be careful since a search may return results for old web pages or documents.
