Each year, Home Ed sponsors a graduation ceremony for our senior class. This very popular and successful event recognizes the achievement of our Home Ed seniors and their families. Home Ed graduation caps off a year of class fun and hard academic work.

We have had graduates who are National Merit Finalists; who have received Governor's Distinguished Scholarships; and who have been members of the National Honor Society, National Beta Club, and National Society of High School Scholars.

The beauty of homeschooling is that students can move in the direction of their talent. Homeschooling affords students the freedom to excel in their area of interest, as well as the opportunity to give to their home and global communities. In addition to academics, Home Ed graduates have given hundreds of hours to community service.

Many of our graduates will go into college, military service, vocational school or directly into the workforce.

In 2008 we had 67 graduates participate in our Home Ed graduation (our largest Home Ed graduation ceremony to date). Scholarships totaled over $760,000 and Communicty Service Hours totaled over 15,000.

Our graduation is a Home Ed event which is open to all Home Ed members - regardless of the sub-group you participate in. However, for many reasons, this is NOT an open graduation. There are multiple details involved in planning this event and several significant deadline dates (ordering diplomas, ordering caps and gowns, graduation program printing deadlines, etc.).

To participate in Home Ed's graduation ceremony:

• Join Home Ed at the beginning of the school year.
• Read all graduation details that are published in the newsletter.
• Comply with all of Home Ed's requirements for signing up for Home Ed's graduation (as listed in the newsletter at the appropriate time).
• Meet all of Home Ed's graduation ceremony criteria. Potential graduates should be review the items under "Finishing High School" on the Resources page.
