I've been using a transcript template from the HSLDA website. It is set up for 4 years of high school. My Ds will have enough credits to graduate after 3 years. How do you set up transcripts with a grade level header on each section? (i.e. 9th, 10th, 11th, 12th) Should I just omit that and only label the school year in which the credits were earned (School year 2011-2012, etc.)? I don't want it to look like he stopped after 11th grade.
This example sums up by academic year (not grade level) and seems like it would more than convey the point that graduation was achieved.
Thanks so much for that. My Dd started accumulating high school credits this year (12 yrs old) and I like the way they showed the credits accrued prior to typical high school years separately. I am not a "list thinker", so there is a part of me that doesn't care for the format of the one you posted, but I can definitely work with it. I already had sections on Ds's transcript for volunteer hours and missions trips. Some of his other activities I have included for credits like technology for running the power points at church as well as the sound board for our band and speakers.
Brooke, you could also list credits by category, with only a completion date for graduation. Like all the English in a group, all Foreign Language, all Math, all ... etc.
I would go by academic year. Rachael had her first class for high school credit when she was 12. It was an "outside" class, taught by a former high school teacher, and he wrote a letter at the end telling just what it covered, how much credit it was worth, and her grade. It's the ONLY class I listed for that year. The next year, I included her Algebra, since Algebra is considered a high school class.
