The purpose of this legislation, known as the Continuity of Military Parents' Academic Schooling and State Standards Act of 2026, or the COMPASS Act, is to support military families who homeschool their children. It aims to ensure that these families can provide uninterrupted education despite frequent relocations due to military service. The Act seeks to reduce the administrative challenges and legal complexities that can arise from moving between different states, which often have varying homeschooling laws.
