If my divorce decree is sealed how can I provide a copy to my childs school to verify custody?

I wouldn't. A sealed court case is done by a Judge, probably in this case to protect your child or children. The school has no RIGHT to see what a Judge has sealed. I'd call the attorney you had for the divorce and ask what kind of document you can get only regarding proof of and legal assignment of custody to you. IF you must provide the sealed document, I'd first make a COPY and take a black marker and draw a thick line through everything EXCEPT NAMES, COURT DOCKET #, DATE OF DECISION, THE CUSTODY PARAGRAPH, AND THE END OF THE DOCUMENT WITH THE SIGNATURES. (A redacted document.) After blackening all portions that are private on the COPY, then Xerox the copy so no one can try to see through the blackened sections. The financial arrangements, marital debts, division of marital property, and any marital "allegations" or "determination" about marital issues is NOT the school's business!

Then, the court can draft an official court certified document that includes only the information the school needs. Generally, a school only needs to know who has legal custody.
