Home School Graduation Recognition Act

# Home School Graduation Recognition Act (S 3747) Summary **What the Bill Would Do** This bill would provide federal recognition for high school diplomas earned through homeschooling. Currently, homeschooled students who complete their education don't receive an official diploma recognized at the federal level, even though they may follow rigorous curricula. The bill aims to establish a standardized framework so homeschooled graduates can receive credentials that are widely accepted for college admissions, job applications, and other purposes that typically require a high school diploma. **Who It Affects** The bill directly affects homeschooled students and their families, as well as colleges and employers who evaluate educational credentials.

It could also impact state education departments, which currently handle diploma standards differently across the country. **Current Status** As of now, the bill remains in committee and has not been voted on by the full Senate. This means it's still in the early legislative process and would need committee approval before advancing further. *Note: For the most current status, check Congress.gov, as legislative situations can change.*.
