Overview

Bill Intelligence

The bill, named the "Home School Graduation Recognition Act," seeks to amend the Higher Education Act of 1965 to recognize students who complete their high school education through home schooling as high school graduates. This change enables home-schooled students to be considered on par with traditional high school graduates for the purposes of the Higher Education Act. If passed, this bill would impact the educational opportunities and benefits available to home-schooled students by providing them with recognition equivalent to that of traditional high school graduates under federal law.
