A word about high school transcripts and diplomas from the Nevada Homeschool network website:
- It is important to understand that a homeschooled child will not receive a public school high school diploma. A diploma is a certificate that says the student has completed a certain course of study. Homeschooled children have completed a course of study in compliance with , and are therefore eligible to receive a diploma from the parents or from an institution employed by the parents such as a private correspondence or online high school.
- Homeschool parents may choose to review their local school district鈥檚 鈥済raduation requirements鈥� for current public school high schools, a Nevada private high school, or an online private high school, or devise their own requirements based on the minimal courses required under NRS 388D.050 suitable for the needs of their child to become a productive member of society.
- Parent-generated diplomas and transcripts are legally binding and wholly acceptable. Further, it is not necessary, nor advisable, for a homeschool child to take the GED as proof of completion of high school.
- A student may choose to pursue a college degree, vocational training, and/or move directly into the workforce after completing his/her homeschool program. And many homeschool students begin taking 鈥渄ual-credit鈥� courses at local community colleges or preparing for vocational training during the high school years.
- After completion of a child鈥檚 homeschool high school program, the parent issues the diploma. However, 鈥渙fficials鈥� later in life may question the diploma as not 鈥渞eal.鈥� Here is the answer to such statements:
- In NV, under the 鈥渉omeschool option鈥� (NRS 392.070 subsection 2) the parent is the director of the child鈥檚 education. Period. The parent assumes full responsibility for the child鈥檚 education. As such the parent advances the student, issues a diploma and any required paperwork just the same as a Nevada private school (NRS 392.070 subsection 1).
- To not recognize a diploma issued to a homeschool student by the parent in Nevada would be a form of discrimination against the student.

Even if students are under 18 years old, parents and guardians cannot access/request their grades or information without the student's consent. This is in accordance with federal law, specifically the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), which safeguards student privacy. Nevertheless, we strongly encourage open communication regarding students' grades. Research indicates that establishing such communication tends to enhance academic performance and reduce overall stress among college students.
Students also have the option to designate a third party through their student portal.
- Log into your student center
- Select 'Manage Third Party Releases' option on the bottom right
- Fill out the information and save.
Once saved, anyone listed on the release can communicate with 糖心vlog representatives regarding the student's records and information.
