Comparing Enrollment Options?
Start With One Important Question
Who will be responsible for your child’s official school records?
Choose Private School Enrollment if you want FACE to serve as your child’s private school and maintain their official school records (even if you are filing a NOI for a public enrichment program.)
Choose an NOI Support Membership if you are homeschooling under a Notice of Intent or another independent homeschool pathway. You remain responsible for meeting the legal requirements of that pathway, while FACE provides the level of support included in your membership.
Choose Preschool Only if your child is not yet school-age and you want access to FACE preschool classes and community activities

Planning for High School?
High school families should think about all four years of high school. One of the biggest choices is who will keep the student’s official records.
- Private Premium students have FACE high school record services. FACE will create and keep the student’s official private school transcript. Graduates receive a FACE diploma.
- Premium NOI includes tools that help families plan courses and build a transcript. The transcript is still a parent-issued homeschool transcript. It is not an official FACE transcript.
- Extra high school and senior fees apply.
