Tracking Your School Year

June 5, 2012 by Ami 26 Comments

The law (for my state):

180 DAYS OF INSTRUCTION: You decide which days your school will be in session, and how long to teach each day. 

All I really need to keep track is a calendar chart. I simply x each day that we do school. 

My friend gave me some tracking charts a few years ago, but I didn't make a copy and now I'm fresh out.

What to do? Make my own. And you can use it, too (just give it a click!). 


 

Update: Some of you requested a July-June Calendar. Here it is: Tracking Your School Year July-June.

    Ami ~ Thank you! Our state (GA) just went to reporting attendance once per year to the state (it used to monthly to our local school system). This printable is perfect. I forwarded your post on to our homeschool group!

    This looks great! My state does not require reporting but I like to keep track for personal reasons.

    This is great! Our school year in NY (legally) runs July-June. Would it be too much to ask you to post one of those as well? I tried to just modify it, but it seems to be read-only.

    Christa,

    That would not be a problem. I will probably just email it directly to you! ๐Ÿ™‚ Ami

    I love that! I would like to one that runs through the whole year as well but if not, this is nice. I’m trying to put together a planner for myself if I can get it all together…. So many forms!

    Hi Brittany, it’s been added! ๐Ÿ™‚ Ami

    Thank you Ami! Can’t wait to use it!

    Love this! Thank you so much! Would it be too much to ask if you could send me a copy with the month names blank? Our school year is Sept-August. Can’t wait to use this next year. ๐Ÿ™‚

  13. Ami says

    July 26, 2012 at 8:38 am

    Adding one to the post right now! ๐Ÿ™‚

    This is exactly what I do, just check off the days! Yours is prettier than mine, so I’m downloading yours! Thanks!

    Awesome! Exactly what I wanted. I really dislike landscape and was so happy to find this form in portrait mode. No more flipping my binder to check off a day. Thanks

    Thank you for this, just wanted to let you know I'll be using this again for my 2nd year. So simple and effective ๐Ÿ™‚

    Thank you for making this! Here in NY our school year is July 1st to June 30th. Your updated calendar works perfect for homeschooling!

    Thank you SO much! I was going to make one, but this is much cuter and saved me a bunch of time. I appreciate it!
