From High School at Home to Higher Education

GRAY, Tenn. - Dec. 14, 2021 - PRLog -- Where does the path lead for homeschooled high schoolers? Studies show it's a promising path; one that may lead to higher education. The future is bright for homeschooled teens, with research indicating that "home-educated students typically score above average on the SAT and ACT tests that colleges consider for admissions." Further, "Homeschool students are increasingly being actively recruited by colleges." (NHERI)

How do parents of homeschooled high school students place their students on that bright path? Through the gateway—the Homeschooler's Higher Education & College Gateway, that is. It's an online destination where parents of homeschoolers, who also serve as their children's guidance counselors, will discover answers for planning high school and success beyond. Access is free to this digital collection of articles specifically intended to equip homeschool parents as they guide their students toward post-graduation achievement. Articles provide solutions for transcripts, dual credit, applications, scholarships, and everything else academic that keeps parents of high schoolers up at night. Parents will find career exploration material for teens who are undecided and helpful information for those headed to a university, technical, or trade school. Advice on establishing study skills and preparing for college-level work is available here as well. The Homeschooler's Higher Education & College Gateway also supplies connections to homeschool-friendly colleges and other valuable resources.

"Homeschool graduates have a track record of success getting into college," shared Gena Suarez, publisher of The Old Schoolhouse® Magazine. "Planning during the high school years results in great outcomes and makes continuing education goals become reality.
