HB 1348 (2025): Homeschool Diplomas (Signed Into Law)

  • Sponsors: Rep. Timothy Wesco; co-authors Reps. Lawson, Cash, and Hostettler; Senate sponsors Sens. Raatz and Freeman
  • Status: Signed by the governor April 10, 2025 (Public Law 61); effective July 1, 2025 (Indiana General Assembly: HB 1348; HSLDA).
  • On a committee agenda: Yes
  • Synopsis: A diploma or credential issued by a non-accredited non-public school, including a homeschool, is legally sufficient to show high school completion. State and local agencies and Indiana colleges may not treat a person differently based solely on the diploma’s source, and the school’s administrator may sign required education documents (bill digest).
  • Rating: 👍 Decreases burdens. It protects homeschool graduates applying for jobs and college.
