Record Keeping for Homeschoolers with Outside-the-Box Kids

ADHD· Autism· Get Started· Homeschool· Outside-the-Box Kids

Is record keeping something you’ve been keeping up with?

Or is record keeping something that keeps slipping from your mind? Or, have you decided to roll up your sleeves and do it but when faced with the amount of paperwork you get too flustered to deal with the decisions – what to keep? What to toss? What do you need for transcripts one day? And what should you hang on to just in case you want a trip down memory lane?

Record keeping can get especially complicated when you’ve got an outside-the-box child with evaluations, therapist notes, and doctor’s recommendations. How do you sort through the everlasting paper trail and weed through what really matters?

Join me today as I talk about record keeping and give you four simple categories to divide your paperwork into. I’ll tell you what to toss in the fire pit this summer, what to hang on to, and how to store it all. Listen as I give you some easy ways to deal with papers in your homeschool once and for all and help you start a once a year habit that will simplify and declutter your paper trail while preparing you for your future homeschool needs.

In this episode you’ll hear:

  • Why record keeping doesn’t need to be big and complicated
  • Why the end of the school year is the perfect time to start this new habit
  • How to sort the paperwork that comes with homeschooling
  • How to create a memory box for your child to enjoy “one day” without taking up too much space in the meantime
  • Why you should keep grades and attendance…even if your state doesn’t require it
  • What kind of work examples are useful to keep on hand and why
  • How to organize all the paper that comes with having an outside-the-box child
