INDILA for Homeschool Families
Many Indiana families search for homeschool options and discover INDILA because it offers the flexibility of homeschooling with the structure, support, and accreditation of a private school.
INDILA is not traditional do-it-yourself homeschooling. It is a tuition-free, accredited virtual private school that lets families learn from home while providing certified teachers, a structured curriculum, grading, transcripts, and a recognized diploma.
—— Is INDILA homeschooling?
Not Exactly. INDILA Is a Private School You Complete From Home.
Families who want flexibility, independence, and home-based learning often choose INDILA because it removes the burden of curriculum selection, teaching, grading, and transcript management, while still allowing students to learn from home at their own pace.
For many families, INDILA is the blend of independence and support they were looking for.

Parents serve as learning coaches. Teaching, grading, and school records are INDILA’s responsibility.
INDILA teachers provide
✓ Instruction in every course
✓ Grading and specific feedback on assignments
✓ Pacing and progress monitoring
✓ Intervention when a student falls behind and acceleration when a student is ready
✓ Personalized academic plans and course placement
✓ Regular communication with families
✓ Official transcripts and records
Parents and guardians provide
✓ Daily learning routines and a consistent workspace
✓ Help staying organized and motivated
✓ A check that assignments are completed
✓ Progress monitoring in the parent view, including real-time grades
✓ Communication with teachers as needed
Students coming from homeschooling receive full academic placement support. Courses are matched to the student’s current skill level, so a student who is ahead in math and behind in writing can be placed accordingly.

Individual Courses for Traditional Homeschool Families
Families looking for a traditional homeschool experience may purchase individual courses through INDILA. This allows the parent to remain in the teacher role while drawing on a robust course catalog across the K–12 spectrum.
Individual-course enrollment is separate from full-time INDILA enrollment and is not covered by the Choice Scholarship. Contact INDILA for current course availability and pricing: email info@indila.org or call (574) 205-8875, and say you are asking about individual courses rather than full-time enrollment.
—— Tuition
Most Indiana Families Pay $0.*
Tuition is fully covered for most Indiana families through the Choice Scholarship and INDILA’s internal financial aid. Families enrolling outside state windows may pay tuition temporarily until the next Choice window opens.
