Wyoming homeschool graduation requirements

For many families, the real question is not just β€œCan we homeschool?” but β€œWill my child be okay for high school, graduation, college, or work?” This page summarizes the Wyoming high-school path and the records parents should build early.

Plain-English note: this is a parent guide, not legal advice. Use the official source links at the bottom of the page before a deadline or filing decision.

Diploma path

The reviewed HSLDA guidance says a parent-issued diploma and transcript should generally be sufficient to show completion of secondary education.

College admission notes

Wyoming colleges will usually want a homeschool transcript and may also consider course descriptions, outside classes, test scores, or dual-enrollment work when available.

Dual enrollment

Yes. The reviewed HSLDA public-school-access page says resident students may participate in district dual-enrollment programs under Wyoming postsecondary enrollment statutes, subject to program eligibility rules.

Sports access

Yes. Wyoming law, as summarized by HSLDA, permits resident non-enrolled students to participate in activities sanctioned by the Wyoming High School Activities Association that are offered by the district, subject to ordinary district and association rules and fees.

Special education considerations

The reviewed HSLDA Wyoming special education page says there are no additional homeschool requirements for children with special needs and no state law explicitly granting homeschool students a right to state-funded special education services. Districts may offer services at their discretion.
