What Homeschool Planner does

A homeschool planner for several children: weekly lesson plans that roll forward when a day is missed, attendance and hours counted against the requirement you enter, a gradebook and a high-school transcript with GPA, a portfolio, a reading log and field trips — offline, no formulas to break.

Questions

Something else? Email us and we'll answer before you buy.

Where is my data stored? Is it private?

Everything is saved inside your browser on this device. Nothing is uploaded and there is no account, so no company holds a copy of your children’s records. They are not encrypted, though: anyone who can use this device and browser can open them, so keep the device locked. Download a backup regularly (Settings → Data & backup → Back up now) and keep it somewhere as safe as the records themselves.

Does it work without internet?

Yes. Open index.html and it runs fully offline. You can also host the folder on any website and choose “Install app” in Chrome or Edge to get a desktop or phone icon that works offline.

Can I use it on my phone or iPad?

Yes. The layout adapts to phones and tablets with a bottom navigation bar. Each device keeps its own data, so use Back up / Restore to move records between devices.

How do I start fresh after trying the sample data?

Go to Settings → Data & backup → Erase records. Every sample record is removed, and so are the sample school’s name, dates and requirement, so nothing of theirs ends up on your printouts. Your other settings are kept.

Does it know my state’s homeschool rules?

No. Every state sets its own rules, and many set none. The app counts days and hours against the numbers you type into Settings → School year, so check your state’s requirements and enter them there. Nothing in it is legal advice, and it does not claim to meet any law.

What exactly happens when we miss a day?

The lessons planned on that day move to the next day each course is taught, and every later lesson in those courses moves along one place, skipping weekends, breaks and other cleared days. Nothing is deleted and no lesson is skipped. Each moved lesson shows the day it came from, and each course’s finish date updates. You can undo it straight away, or put the day back later.

How is a school day counted?

A day you mark yourself counts as you marked it: a school day, a half day, or not a school day. Otherwise a day counts as soon as a lesson is ticked off or an activity is logged on it — you can switch that off in Settings → School year. Only days between the first and last day of your school year are counted.

How is the GPA worked out?

Each completed transcript course’s grade is turned into grade points using the scale in Settings → Grades and transcript, multiplied by the course’s credits, added up, and divided by the total credits. Courses in progress and pass/fail courses are left out. A weighted GPA, with extra points for honors and dual-enrollment courses, can be switched on beside it.

How many children can it hold?

As many as you teach. Today shows each child in a column, four side by side on a wide screen, and wraps the rest; the week plan shows one child or everyone.

Is this for classroom teachers or for students?

Neither. It is for a parent teaching their own children at home. A teacher planning lessons for classes is better served by our Teacher Lesson Planner, and a student keeping track of their own coursework by the Homework & Assignment Tracker.

Can both parents use it?

Each device keeps its own copy of the records, so there is no live sync between two computers. Most families keep it on one laptop and print the weekly plans, or move the records with Back up now and Restore.

Can several people use it at the same time?

No. It is made for one person on one device, and records do not sync between devices. To move to another device, save a backup and restore it there.
