If you're thinking about homeschooling and you live in the United States, please check out this helpful doo-dad from the HomeSchool Legal Defense Association: Home School Laws. It has a map, and the states are clickable to take you to the specifics. PLEASE don't go by just the little color codey thing either. In my experience, Utah is not as homeschool friendly as the HSLDA would color them as. Check out the laws in your individual state to verify whether it's going to be a hassle and whether you'll need more information. And just reading the laws for Kansas, it looks less-friendly than Colorado, so go figure.
And I am in no way advocating membership in the HSLDA. I'm not a member, I don't plan on being a member, and you'll have to make that determination for yourself.
Please remember, the start of the new school year is only two months away. Now is the time to be considering whether you want your children to spend another year in the public-school system, or you want to teach them at home. As always, that determination is up to you and your situation.
