Homeschooling the College-Bound StudentAuthor: Jennifer K. GrayMaking the decision to homeschool your child throughout high school with an eye towards college is a rewarding and challenging task. Here are some things to consider: Choices for fulfilling college requirements One of your first decisions will be to consider how you want to prepare your child for college. The choices generally consist of using a portfolio or using an umbrella/distance school.
