* HOMESCHOOLING IN HIGH SCHOOL *
I just want to address a common misunderstanding I often see in Facebook groups.
People ask, "What is required to graduate your homeschooler from high school?"
The answer is always, "Homeschoolers in Florida have no specific class requirements."
TRUE. BUT....
Please remember that colleges DO have requirements. Even if you "think" your child doesn't want to attend college, it's still best to plan your high schooling with college requirements in mind.
Don't ask, "What is required for high school graduation?"
Instead ask, "What is required to enter and/or graduate from college?"
The worst thing you can do is NOT prepare your child for success. If you don't give your child what they need now in high school, they will end up wasting time later doing remedial classes before they can start their college classes.
So, look at local colleges or the college or university they want to attend. Plan their high school transcript with these requirements in mind, and work backwards from there. Fill in their grades with each class they complete, and by the time they're done, they will have all the class credits needed to enter college - even if that is years later.
Your homeschooler will thank you for setting them up for success!
Remember, you quite literally hold their future in your hands!

*NOTE: It's not only colleges that might ask for your high school transcripts, but some jobs, tradeschools, military, etc. might also too. You are making lifelong choices for them today!
