There is TONS of info and helps pinned at the top of the High School Board to help you start researching and get ready. Pinned at the top of the high school board, there are FIVE threads with reviews on curricula and courses for Math, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and Foreign Languages. PLUS, there are 2 big/multi-topic pinned threads, one with topics on Starting to Homeschool High School, and, High School Tests and one with topics on Transcripts/Record Keeping, and Outsourcing. AND, there is a brand-new pinned thread at the top of the College Board (Going to College motherlode) with topics on career exploration, searching for and applying to colleges, financial aid and scholarships, NCAA, and more! Below is the "table of contents" for each of those last 3 pinned threads. Happy researching through the wisdom of the Hive!
