    Penn Foster High School is regionally accredited.  In fact, it has the exact same accreditation as the public high school where I live.  I know this because the public high school has a large plaque at the entrance of the building with the name of the school and its accreditation.  A diploma from PFC should be recognized like any other high school diploma.

    It's not a stupid question at all, especially as Penn Foster High School and Penn Foster College have different types of accreditation.  In fact, accreditation is generally a confusing topic, even for people who've been around the block a few times!

    PF High School is regionally accredited, so there shouldn't be any problems. A variety of different schools offer the degrees mentioned on here, so it wouldn't hurt to check with the schools you're interested in individually and find out what the admission requirements are. Some require that you have to have taken certain courses in HS, etc.
