Question: making your own diploma?
I want to homeschool my son through 8th grade then put him in high school because I don't want him to have just a GED, I want him to have a high school diploma, and have the privilege of walking down the aisle at graduation. I also don't want him to miss out on things like prom and clubs and stuff. I know people say these things aren't important in life, but a lot of my high school memories are good ones, and they have to do with me being a part of the yearbook staff, prom etc. I don't want him to miss out on those things. Some people said that I can make my own high school diploma to give him, but is this legal? I want it to be accredited so he can go to college, I don't want to just print up a high school diploma for him that doesn't mean anything. How is this possible that you can LEGALLY print your own diploma? I live in Kentucky if that helps, does anyone know if this state would accept a "homemade" high school diploma?
Answer: There is state testing and a home-schooling governance board that ensures that home-schooled children are actually learning and being taught correctly and sufficiently. The home-school test for high school is similar to a G.E.D., but is a certificate of education meeting or exceeding the requirements of the state for the high-school level.
You can then create a “diploma” to present to your child, but they will need to indicate on their college applications or employment applications that they were home-schooled, and transcript reports would be the state examination scores.
I hope this helps!
