If any child attends upon instruction elsewhere than in a public school the instruction shall be in a school which conforms to the minimum standards prescribed by the State Board of Education. The hours and term of attendance exacted shall be equivalent to the hours and term of attendance required of children in the public schools of the district. This section does not require a child to attend a high school instead of a vocational, commercial or other special type of school, provided the instruction therein is for a term and for hours equivalent to those of the high school, and provided his or her attendance at the school shall not interfere with a continuous program of education for the child to the age of 16.
