How to locate my high school diploma?

Hi everyone, I've misplaced my high school diploma and I'm unsure of how to go about obtaining a copy. Anyone know the process for finding or requesting a new one? Any help would be appreciated!

Hi there! If you've misplaced your high school diploma and need a copy, you can follow this process:

1. Contact your high school: Get in touch with the main office of your high school or the school district office. They may have a record of your diploma and can issue a duplicate copy or a letter of completion, which is often accepted as a substitute.

2. Provide necessary information: Be prepared to give your full name as it appeared on your original diploma, your date of birth, graduation year, and any other identifying information they may request. These details will help them locate your records more efficiently.

3. Pay any associated fees: Some schools or districts may charge a small administrative fee for issuing a duplicate diploma or a letter of completion. Be prepared to pay this fee if it is required.

4. Wait for processing: Once you've provided all necessary information and paid any fees, allow some time for the school to process your request. This could take a few days to a few weeks, depending on their resources and workload.

5. Receive your duplicate diploma or letter of completion: After processing is complete, you will receive your duplicate diploma or a letter of completion either by mail or pick-up, based on the options provided by the school.

Keep in mind that each school or district may have slightly different processes, so it's always best to speak with them directly and follow their specific instructions. Good luck!
