So, each state is different and dual enrollment is a pretty new thing- meaning it might not be available in all 50 states. However, push for it, because it is a HOT HOT HOT topic/trend right now and with the explosion of non-traditional education, this will be available in every state in the near future.
This isn't directed at any specific state, however, if your state requires "school district approval" and you are in a state in which homeschooling is a school (not every state) then YOU are the district and YOU give approval. So, in my old state Illinois, homeschools are private schools. In North Carolina, we are an approved non-public school. So, it's all about classification. There are still some states that oversee homeschooling, but it's small (NY is one).
The answer to any question regarding oversight is to contact HSLDA and find out the legal status of your school in your state. HSLDA: Homeschooling Advocates since 1983
