The number one reason I hear is that the whole idea seems too daunting because of the record keeping involved. Many homeschooling parents see that task as impossible, and it is enough to send them to the nearest principal’s office to get their teen registered for ‘official’ high school.
Not only is homeschooling through high school possible, it really isn’t that difficult to navigate. It just takes a little research and planning, and it can be a very rewarding four years. I did it, and you can, too! In fact, homeschooling high school just got easier with Betsy Sproger’s helpful guide to all you need to know in Homeschooling High School with College in Mind: 2nd Edition

In Homeschooling High School with College in Mind, Betsy shares how she covered all the bases for college admission, and she even includes reproducible forms to make this task even easier for those of us with college bound homeschoolers.
