High school level transcripts

>From the home-asheville newsgroup

Here is some information on sample high school level transcripts. Most of us are still couple of years away, but if your child is doing high school level work, you should start logging and tracking time to 'prove' the credits should you ever enroll in traditional schools or college.

Even though this page is not from our state, it is helpful information in order to know what is expected. I think it is the same as North Carolina basically:

As for the number of hours spent in study for a credit...it is looking like 120 is the expected number, generally speaking, for credit to be valid. Placement tests or entrance exams are given anyway for math or English if there aren't SAT or ACT scores.

As for folks that do not grade or haven't thought about GPA's yet...well, just come up with grades that seem right to you. You are the homeschool administrator and you make those decisions based on your own analyzation...No one else's. Here is a GPA calculator: http://www.back2college.com/gpa.htm

These are the basic requirements for highschool graduation here: http://www.ncdnpe.org/hhh112.htm
