I would like to become a teacher, but im getting a nationally recognized accredited high school diploma. Could i still go to college for teaching?
I agree with eri, one of the other responders to the Y!A question, on whether one would be permitted to teach in a public or private elementary or high school with an online high school diploma. The short answer is NO.
But, your question leads to other questions about where you may be allowed to teach outside of the public or private schools. If you submitted a nationally recognized high school diploma to a daycare center in the U.S., you probably can become a daycare teacher where you would serving a daycare center. Furthermore, you may be able to teach with a curriculum specially designed for babies and children , ages six months to 5 or 6 years old. But, teachers in daycare centers will usually not be promoted to directors" jobs. They will receive only hourly wages which may or may not meet federal or state standards. Those wages will be on a partime job. There will be no social security benefits paid. There may not have health insurance. That kind of a future would be very bleak. In the event that you understand the limitations you faced and if you want to go in that direction, that would be OK.
If however, your goals are higher, then a suggestion would be to enroll in an educational program at a community or junior college level. Such a college most likely will accept your high school credential, and you may enroll in education courses that will provide you with basic education courses. Those courses should be acceptable for transfer to a four year college. Enrollment in a four year college with a program in teacher education will then prepare you to get a BA or BS degree in teacher education. That degree should also prepare you with a teacher's certificate for that state.
And Horrah! you will be prepared to go into a teaching position in either elementary or secondary schools. You will receive a salary, social security benefits, health insurance, and professional colleagues who will help you in your teaching career.,

Not sure about their accreditation, so just be sure you check on that, but an old neighbor girl of mine got hers through here, and she said she checked out the accreditation thing.
Good luck!
It says on the website and I will put a link in. This states that they are accredited. so can someone tell me if this is accepted by the army, navy, air force, marines, coast guard, and the national guard. So are they accredited

so can someone find out from a creditable source if this high school diploma program is accepted by the military
generally speaking, Online diplomas( and most home school programs) are NOT accepted as Tier ones. Only Tier 2s.. meaning a GED and thus you would not be able to enlist without 15 100 level college credits as well.
they want you IN the classroom.
