Piecing Together the High School Puzzle contains a thorough explanation of the requirements, record keeping, evaluations, ways to obtain courses, building transcripts, and applying for colleges, technical schools and scholarships for the high school years. It's complete with a bonus chapter on "Fun Stuff" like class rings, proms, grad pictures, trips, etc.

The author, Joanne Mastronicola, has home schooled for 14 years with one in college with the benefit of three scholarships, and has two others still in high school. For several years, she has worked with high school student paperwork in Eunice Christian School, a private school composed of only home schooled students.

Although this book was written specifically for the Florida home schoolers, many principles are adaptable to your states requirements. Simply use the basic info and the forms along with your state departments educational web sites.

We highly recommend the Portfolio Supplement for Piecing Together the High School Puzzle to go along with this guide. See #10-15590 for more details.
