The Saturday Morning Review

 

This past school year, I quite contentedly used my Well-Planned Day homeschool planner. It’s the 3rd year I’ve used one, and I can’t say enough good things about it!

So, when I was asked if I wanted to review Home Educating Family’s High School 4-Year Planner, I was excited! And when I told my soon-to-be high school daughter, she was pretty pumped about it too.

I wasn’t sure what to expect, but let me tell you–this thing delivers! It is jam-packed with planning pages, notes, tips, resources, and encouragement for all four years of high school. Keeping track of classes, grades, and extra-curricular activities will be easy, using the pages they’ve included. This means that creating a transcipt using this planner will be very do-able. The college-prep information and timelines will be, I believe, invaluable to keeping us on track.

Here are some of the details of what’s in this planner (which is written directly TO the high school student):

Over 330 Full Color Pages Spiral Bound Full Year Planner: July 2012 – June 2016 Record a Four Year Goal Organize Records, Grades & GPA with Sample Transcripts Plan Each High School Year with Class Plan and Checklists View Semester Calendars with Holidays Read Informative Articles for Each Semester Schedule Each Month: Track Class Assignments, Attendance, Community Involvment, and Grades Record Semester Progress: Grades, Attendance, Portfolio Information, and Journaling the High School Experience Plan a College Portfolio Review College Considerations and Visits. Maintain College Grants and Scholarship Information. and much more….

My daughter has already been reading some of the articles and tips/hints pages. Her only problem with this planner is that the month-at-a-glance calendars don’t have much room in the boxes to write things in.

We are both glad to be able to have this resource available to us for these last 4 years of her education! I would encourage you to take a look at all the homeschool planning resources that are available at Home Educating Famiy.
