  1. Thank you to the two ladies who responded so far! And thank you for sharing your school profile. I would welcome additional input if anyone else has any! :) I am wondering if I should include curriculum-type things. Does anyone include their curriculum outline or description in either the School Profile or the Homeschool description... I don't mean the whole thing, just something like "We used this online school, we used this university, we used these textbooks." Do any of you include textbook titles in either of these documents... I am still wondering how much detail it would be OK to include. -jhschool
  2. Dear Friends, DS is a senior this year and we are very close to being done--but I am holding up the whole process! DS already turned in his CA, recommenders turned in their letters, and all the scores and transcripts are sent by outside institutions. I am stumped about what should go in: School Profile Homeschool Environment, Description, etc. and I don't know how much redundancy there would be. Is the School Profile a general description of our school? How would it be different from the Homeschool Environment, Description, etc? Or is the School Profile more a list of course descriptions? I had two different admissions people tell me two different things, and one of them said, "Oh, just put the same thing in school profile as in homeschool description." Then he changed his mind and said: "You know what, just put the course descriptions with esoteric titles that we would not understand." So I am very confused! I have been keeping records all along, so have all the information in Word documents. I just need to know what to put where. What are the ladies here doing as far as School Profile vs. Homeschool Env. & Description? Would anyone be willing to share their document? (You can take out all your personal info--I just wish I knew what School Profile is supposed to look like.) Thank you!!! -jhschool
  3. I know...sometimes I feel like I'm going to pass out if I am in a parking lot on the blacktop, because it's so hot!

    No advice but sending you lots of hugs. This sounds like a difficult situation.

    I know. It was a joke. Or more like a trap. I knew someone wouldn't be able to resist. :) :p Love you, Jean (your tackle posts make my day!)
  12. I'm sorry you had these experiences... And I'm very sorry for your loss...

    Honest answers are fine. Most were honest and polite. I didn't like being told I would criticize or judge. I wouldn't do that. I'm not offended, just a little chagrined at what I perceived to be a slightly unkind tone. Look, no big deal. It's not important. It was going to be something to help, not to make people feel bad. I completely didn't expect snappy answers. My bad.

    I didn't throw any stones. I didn't criticize anyone. I didn't judge anyone. None of these things crossed my mind. I was thinking more of like a PSA thing (akin to the kitten siggie someone has). I didn't even point out anyone's mistakes. Thank you for using the word "gently" though. (And I assure you I didn't do anything!) Man... Quick way to get one's head chopped off... (not you Aimee!) Most of you were very kind and some of you were funny. (Sisifus was funny.) Thank you Arctic Mama and TammyK! :)

    I wouldn't judge or criticize, and I specifically said I wouldn't be rude. I don't appreciate the tone of your post when I was perfectly polite. Anyway, never mind. I erased the post. No nitpicking or judgment coming up. Geez, no need to get mean!
  18. I am in my early 40s and I could go all day. I usually go 2 to 3 hours then come on this forum to waste time and sit down. Then another 2 to 3 and so on. But last week I went about 4. I stop and sit because I'm lazy, not because I'm tired.
