Hello, everyone! I know this is not my usual schtick but it is something that is close to my heart. Over the past few years, state after state has 'tightened the belt,' so to speak, on homeschool regulations. Many families, once successfully teaching their own children, have found themselves struggling to cobble together the articles needed to present their homeschooling records.
A little about me... I am a homeschool mother who has homeschooled for the past nine years. From the beginning, I researched multiple states to determine which state had the most stringent homeschooling laws. I set up our homeschool recording keeping and structure in alignment with the toughest out there so that, should laws change where I currently lived, I would be prepared.
To help homeschool families who now find themselves faced with changes to homeschool regulations in their state, I've created a Homeschool Profile booklet to get you started. In it, you'll find forms for organizing your Course of Study for each child as well as tracking their grades for transcripts, their extracurricular activities, and even their attendance. Top that all off with step-by-step instructions for creating a Homeschool Portfolio for your students and you have a great start to your upcoming homeschool year!

Please let me know what other forms, instruction, and helps would assist you in the comments! I'm looking at possibly creating a guide for creating Transcripts as well.
