EXUM, Justice.
Plaintiff educates his children at home. The dispositive question for decision is whether plaintiff's home instruction is prohibited by our compulsory school attendance statutes.1 We conclude that it is not. We do not, therefore, reach the question whether these statutes would violate plaintiff's constitutional freedoms if they prohibited him from so educating his children.
