local school board (board of education of the school district where the child resides)

Free-form letter accepted?
Yes. You can write your own letter instead of using an official form.
Practical tip: HB 209 (2025) simplified the process from an affidavit to a simple notice of intent and removed the criminal background check requirement. If you previously filed an affidavit, you do not need to refile. The school board receives the notice but does not approve or deny it.

Utah Code 53G-6-204

Not required, but recommended to prevent truancy concerns
Send to
the school the child currently attends and the local school board (via notice of intent)
Practical tip: File your notice of intent with the local school board and notify the current school at the same time. The district cannot refuse or add conditions. Request copies of your child's records.
