Homeschool paperwork, built from the work.

How the records keep themselves

Most homeschool paperwork is a record of what already happened: which days your child did school, what they studied, and how they did. We keep that record as your child works, so there is nothing to log by hand.

Your child checks in once at the start of each school day, and that check-in is the day's attendance. Time is logged while they work, and each subject's hours are worked out from the lessons they complete. Every reading check and project your child finishes is saved with its grade and feedback.

Transcript credits come from the lessons your child completes in each subject, not from time spent signed in.

Making a document

Our Parent Dashboard is your view of each child's school. Its Records tab lists the documents your state asks for, plus a transcript, course descriptions, a school profile, and a diploma for high school. Choose one and we fill in what we already know: your family details, your child's subjects, attendance, and grades.

On the document form, you can add what we can't see, such as extracurriculars and awards. Then you sign the document and file it wherever your state requires.

What your state asks for, and what we do about it

Our records cover the rules of all 50 states. Your state and pathway decide what is required, and some districts use their own forms.

Check your state’s requirements

  1. Low paperwork pathways

    Some pathways require no routine notice or testing. Teaching duties and required subjects can still apply.

    We save completed work, grades, and feedback as your child learns, and attendance from their daily check-in. A transcript or progress summary is ready whenever you need one.

    Texas, Alaska, Idaho, Iowa, Oklahoma, New Jersey, Michigan, Connecticut, Illinois

  2. Low regulation

    Notification / Letter of Intent, or required hour and work records

    We fill the notification draft from your family details, and attendance and work samples build alongside the lessons. You sign and file.

    California, Nevada, Nebraska, Mississippi, Kansas, Kentucky, Utah, Wisconsin, Alabama, Montana, Missouri, Ohio, Arkansas, Indiana, Arizona, Delaware, New Mexico, South Dakota, Wyoming

  3. Moderate regulation

    Notice and assessment or review duties vary by state and pathway.

    We prepare notice drafts, attendance logs, progress summaries, and selected work samples from your child's coursework, ready to export for the outside assessment or review your pathway requires.

    Florida, Colorado, Oregon, Virginia, Washington, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Minnesota, Maine, New Hampshire, Hawaii, West Virginia, Louisiana, Maryland, District of Columbia

  4. High regulation

    Formal notices, plans, reports, or assessments may be required. The combination and deadlines depend on the state and pathway.

    We draft instruction plans and progress reports from your child's coursework, and package attendance and work samples for each review.

    New York, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Vermont, Rhode Island, North Dakota

When someone asks for proof

If a district, an evaluator, or a new school asks for records, one export gathers the whole year. It holds attendance, checkpoint results, the documents we generated, and the transcript, plus every finished piece of work with its grade and feedback. A Learning summary PDF and an Attendance PDF answer a quick request. Nothing has to be rebuilt from memory.

FAQ

Who signs and submits the homeschool documents?
You do, where your state requires it. We prepare each draft from your child's records, so signing and submitting is all that is left. Any required outside testing or evaluation follows your state’s process.
How do days and hours count toward my state's rules?
Your state's rule decides that. The attendance log shows both days and hours, by day, week, month, and year, so it fits either kind of rule.
