Records and Reports
AN A to Z ARTICLE
Your Homeschooling Guide offers a variety of ways to help you
plan and track as you wend your way toward college.
Remaking
the Grade
Colleges Devise Formulas to Interpret Applicants' High-School
GPAs. If you plan to go to college, you probably place a lot
of weight on your grade-point average. But you may be interested
to know that many colleges don't. By Anne Marie Chaker,
The Wall Street Journal.
Advisors
Beach High
School
A private alternative school run by Wes Beach, offering a legal
umbrella, guidance, documentation, college admission planning,
and transcripts based on concise portfolios. Specialty: helping
teenagers make a transition from high school studies to their
next life situation, whether college or other. [Guide's note:
I've met this guy and he's good! On west coast.]
Certificates
Look on your favorite office supply website.
Put "certificate paper" in the search engines on
the site. Search for an 81/2 x 11"
diploma frame, too. Also, look for "embossers" and
"seals" to make an official-looking seal on your document.
Diplomas
Certificates
& Memories
Diplomas and other certificates that you can print out on nice
parchment. They'll help you find the paper and the gold seal
as well. Acrobat (.pdf) format.
Diploma
Quest(ion)
It's so easy to get hung up on the whole issue of a high school
diploma. The main purpose of a diploma is to document a specific
program of study that has been completed at an educational institution.
By Barb Shelton.
Homeschool Diploma Photoshop

What
About High School Diplomas?
Here is the simple answer - Your own diploma! You can get a GED
if you like, or you can use a cover school that offers diplomas,
or - Create your own! The important thing is not the diploma,
it is the transcript.
Edu-speak
Edu-speak,
the dictionary
Need to translate ordinary activities into something that an
educator can understand? Study this vocabulary list, and you'll
be able to explain to any school administrator what you are doing,
even if you unschool!
Elective
Course Descriptions
To help you prepare your child's high school transcript, here
is a list of elective course descriptions used by a local public
school. Generally, public schools and colleges will not accept
these courses as meeting the requirements of high school math,
science, history, and English but they can be used as credits
for electives.
Samples
Admission
for Homeschooled Students
Homeschool Transcript Form.
Mary Baldwin College has a pdf transcript you can print out and fill in.
Good one for a Christian teen with diverse interests.
Curricular
Template
Most of Hougton's homeschooled applicants come from homes which
utilize an eclectic approach, drawing curricular materials from
a variety of sources. For these families we can, based on the
experience of our admission committee, offer a template which
you may find useful in preparing your records for college admission
officers.
High
School Academic Transcript Record
I'm not sure this one would impress an admissions officer, as
there are no course descriptions and numerical based "grades."
Why not just give the teen straight A's and be done with it?
High School Transcripts
Donna Young has several transcript templates
in WORD format on her site.
Transcripts
