    Here's What We'll be Walking Thru Together in This Level 2 Training

    Step 1 - The Transcript

    Using the course Transcript template, we will walk step by step thru creating your student's Transcript, so that you have a completed Transcript "to date" and the confidence to update it yearly.

    Step 2 - GPAs

    Using the course GPA calculator (or your own), we will walk thru the process of calculating unweighted and weighted GPAs (annual and cumulative). The calculator will do all the work for you!

    Step 3 - Validation

    We will discuss ways that you can validate your student's transcript in order to increase the transcript's credibility with college admissions counselors and others who may be reviewing the document.

    Step 4 - Pull Together

    This final step pulls the Transcript and the validating documents you've been tracking throughout your student's high school journey into one comprehensive packet for yourselves and to share with others!

    Here's What People Are Saying

    Melinda Johnson

    I really loved that this mini course was so easy to accomplish. I learned a ton about the overall look of the transcript and getting it all on one page. I learned the difference between weighted GPA and non weighted GPA and even the differences of what AP and dual credit and CLEP tests and all that means. I thought I had somewhat of a handle on the transcript, but I learned a ton. I definitely would recommend this course as a starting point, especially if someone is overwhelmed by the plethora of information out there and doesn't have the money to shell out for lengthy courses or year long subscriptions for help. I was pleasantly surprised. Thank you!

    Jen Waddell

    It was a great course for me. I am just dipping my toe into the HS world so I need all the help I can get. The repetition of going back to the transcript in all stages and watching you enter things is exactly what I needed for it to sink in. I really appreciate the grade calculator because I've never kept grades at all and this makes me feel like I can do it. Thank you so much for this thoughtful class. I would recommend it to anyone.

    We just started homeschooling this last year, with my oldest in 7th grade. We love everything about it and want to continue but the thought of doing high school was rather scary/overwhelming to me. I started looking for groups that could help me know how to approach high school. I found this High School group, and Kathleen has just been amazing. Her classes have given me the tools I need to feel confident in my abilities to create transcripts that colleges will be happy with, help me understand how to give him grades, and has taken the pressure off of me. I am so grateful for the time she has put into these classes.

    Founder of Katalytic Empowerment

    I'm Kathleen Rumford, a software engineer / math nerd by nature, education, and early employment but also a 15-year veteran homeschooling mom of 2 daughters. Both of my daughters dual-enrolled in high school and then went on to college, with the oldest even completing her Master’s degree in Spanish Sociolinguistics, and both girls own their own businesses (entrepreneurs from a young age!).


    Because I've heard from many of you that you're just not sure how to get started or you're wondering if you're doing enough in the late middle school years and early high school years, I've put this mini-course together for you. I’ve logically and methodically deconstructed the process of mapping out the high school journey into manageable pieces in order to simplify, speed up, and organize the process for successful completion.​


    And if you take my Level 2 course, you'll have access to my easy and customizable Transcript template, Academic Summary Packet template, AND my customizable GPA Calculator that works with the push of a button!


    I pray that these homeschool resources bless you and your student along the High School Journey!
