Homeschooling in Michigan and recordkeeping. Need requirements!

  Chariyah_homeschooling » Sun, 15 Nov 2020 05:26:41 AM



Hey,emoji-hug I'm really considering homeschooling my kiddo this year using an online homeschool program. I really like the Lernsys homeschooling program. What records are homeschoolers required to keep in Michigan? Any advice? emoji-think

Hi. It is not a requirement by law for homeschoolers in Michigan to keep records, but it is deemed substantially appropriate and beneficial to create a homeschooling portfolio for your child’s progress year to year. This information is crucial when it comes to creating a high school transcript for future college or career needs and in the event the homeschooler needs to return to school for any reason. As a parent, you might want to consider things worth keeping record of. We have got a few suggestions for you: • For any standardized tests taken, keep record of the scores • The grades by subject achieved by the student as well the report cards • The subject work undertaken at each grade level • Other achievements of the students including extracurricular activities he/she participated in • Any volunteer service the student undertook while homeschooling

It is not a requirement by Michigan law, but it is considered highly helpful and valuable to create a homeschooling portfolio for your child’s progress year to year. You may probably want to review this Michigan specific page which contains information about the laws and requirements to homeschool in Michigan:

Michigan Regulations We love the Lernsys program.
