Hey homeschool mom!

Welcome to The Homeschool Well Podcast, where we tackle all things homeschooling with peace and purpose. This episode kicks off a brand-new series all about the homeschool transcript.

If the idea of creating a homeschool transcript feels overwhelming or confusing, you are not alone. Many of us have felt intimidated by this one piece of paper. But here's the good news: it's not as complicated as it seems. In fact, it’s just a clean, simple summary of your teen’s high school years—and we're here to walk you through it step by step.

In this episode, we’re breaking it down easy-breezy. Whether you have a kindergartener or a high schooler, it’s never too early (or too late!) to understand how to document your child’s educational journey with confidence.

You’ll learn:

What actually goes on a homeschool transcript

The basic sections: student info, school info, course titles, grades, credits, and GPA

Why you are qualified to create one (you’re the administrator!)

Where to find editable and printable homeschool transcript templates

Tips for making your transcript look clean, clear, and professional
