Homeschooling and the High School Student

One school used by Foreign Service families is the University of Nebraska-Lincoln program. It is a fully accredited program and the one on which the homeschooling allowance for high schoolers has been calculated. A student has to complete 5 courses (basically a year) through the school, combined with other credits, to receive a diploma.
