Planning for High School Graduation

I'm graduating my 17 year-old in May.  If she went to public school, she would be a high school junior this year.  Because we homeschool, she's been able to take dual enrollment classes at the college all year.  She has a large number of credits: 35.5.  It wouldn't be worth it to have a senior year of high school.  She has a 4.0 college GPA also.

Here's my graduation checklist:

  • Finalize transcripts
    • I make these for free on Word.
    • I print, sign and date about 10 copies.  I place three copies in envelopes, seal them and sign/date the back of the envelopes.
  • Graduation Packet
    • This is also a Word document that's several pages long.  I include information she may need when filling out college applications like volunteer hours, dates, curriculum used, sports/activities, awards, etc.
  • Graduation Folder
    • I place all the transcripts, envelopes, the graduation packet and any other paperwork or awards into a folder.  I give her the folder at graduation.
  • Diploma
  • Cap/Gown
  • Graduation Pictures
  • Scrapbook
    • I'm making her a picture scrapbook on Snapfish.
  • Gift Bag
    • I'm putting a gift bag with some gifts together for her to give at graduation.
