Well first of all my name is Tammy this is the first year I will be Homeschooling my kids grades 2nd 6th and 7th, Anyone out their know of any good programs to keep track of grades, I know its a little early to be worried adout transcripts but I like to plan ahead. I want a program that all I have to do is type in grades and it takes care of the rest? Any ideas?
Thank you ahead of time
Tammy
This is the program we use through our umbrella school and I really like the convenience of it. I also keep a binder for each year with our paperwork, tests, field trips, etc.

I checked out the Web site you sent me, and I am wondering if I am able to use it since we are homeschooling. what is an Umbrella school?
Thank you

It has a free version and a pay version with more features. I have the free version, and it is good. I think I may upgrade though when I have money.
It is a download that goes right on your computer, and you work in it's database for all manner of things, like grades, attendance, books read, keeping track of what they are doing, planning, parent journal, etc.
You can run nice reports for your reviews with it too.
Goodluck,
Arianna

It looks like you can sign up and use it but I believe there is a fee. We get it free through our umbrella.
What does an umbrella school do? In some states, homeschoolers can get some level of support and legal protection for their home education program. So while the answer varies from state to state, here are some of the typical features of umbrella schools:
I found a free program that also will do transcripts! It has video tutorials and I have just started using it. I am getting the hang of it and love the fact that it keeps all the records in one place. it is http://www.homeschoolskedtrack.com/HomeSchool/displayLogin.do.
I am very pleased with this site.
