How to use it

  • One sheet per month. Fill in the month and tick each day school happened.
  • Carry the total forward. Add this month's days to the year-to-date line so you always know where you stand.
  • Know your target. Put your state's required days at the top. Your state page lists it.

How Homeschoolio helps

Counting by hand works, but it is easy to fall behind. Homeschoolio's attendance tracker counts every logged day for you, totals your hours too, and shows progress like "142 of 180 days" with a projected finish date. Export a tidy attendance PDF whenever you need one.

Common questions

How many days of homeschool do I have to record?

It depends on your state. A common figure is 180 days, but some states count instructional hours instead, and several set no number at all. Check your state page for the exact requirement before you rely on a day count.

How do I keep a homeschool attendance record?

Mark each day school was in session and keep a running total for the year. This sheet gives you a month grid and a count line. Homeschoolio does the same automatically: any day you log learning counts toward attendance.

Does a sick day or a field trip count?

Field trips and educational outings usually count as instructional days. Sick days and holidays normally do not. When in doubt, follow your state guidance, and note the day so your record explains itself later.
