Hello Carrie or Julie...or anyone might know the answer.
I am wondering if it is suggested to buy a high school planner to keep track of credits, etc. It doesnt sound like one is included with the guide or is there something I dont know about to help us through this process? If not, is there a method or planner that you would recommend?
Thanks so much!

Mercy,
The HOD guide will be your homeschool planner, as it will include all subjects needed for each year of high school. If you desire to add or replace something, it would be easiest to just do it right within your daily plan. That way it is all tracked in one place.
We will be listing how each subject will be graded as a part of the Introduction to the World Geography guide so that you are able to calculate grades for each subject. We will also be listing the credits earned upon completion of the coursework and the course descriptions for those credits. This should hopefully make record-keeping minimal and painless.
You are always welcome to use another record-keeping method, but it is our desire for this not to be necessary.
Blessings,
Carrie

Carrie,
Sounds great! That makes sense. I think it is just so simple that it doesn't seem like enough! LOL! Thanks again for all you do.
