Description

Home Educating the High School Student is a seminar for families that have 7th grade and above students planning or right in the midst of homeschooling their high school student. We will cover planning your student’s high school course work, graduation requirements, the transcript and resume, high school standardized testing, co-ops and dual credit, college and career options post high school, and staying organized. The Home Educating the High School Student is hosted by Shari Nelson, of CCC Toolbox: College, Career, and Calling – Counseling for the Homeschool Family.
