Church-Related Umbrella School (Category IV)
A church-related “umbrella” school is a satellite program offered by some Category IV non-public schools. “Umbrella” or satellite programs allow parents or legal guardians to participate as a teacher in the church-related school under the supervision of the school’s director. Under Tennessee state law, parent-teachers are subject to the requirements established by the church-related school for home-school teachers and must possess at least a high school diploma or a high school equivalency credential approved by the state board of education. An Intent to Home School form is not required for students enrolled in a church-related school because these programs are approved non-public schools. Instead, parents or legal guardians must provide proof of enrollment in the church-related school to the local school district. As a non-public school, the church-related umbrella school is responsible for student record-keeping and testing requirements. Students graduating from an umbrella school receive their diploma and transcripts from the church-related school at which they are enrolled. To access a list of state-approved Category IV church-related umbrella schools, visit the Non-Public Schools webpage and click on the current Non-Public Schools List. Umbrella programs are identified in the first column titled “Satellite.”
