PROGRESS REPORTS
These reports are to be kept by parent. These reports need to be kept,since some may need a transcript for college, or if you decide to change schools.
If a child leaves CFA, then we will need a copy of your progress reports, if you want CFA to fill out a Transcript for you.
TRANSCRIPTS
A transcript is a form that lists all the subjects and grades your child has finished. This form follows your child to a new school or to a college. A student withdrawing from CFA to attend a private/public school will need a transcript of all work accomplished during their enrollment with CFA. And since we encourage parents to home educate their children through high school, a transcript will need to be prepared for your child that is graduating and desires to go on to college. It is the Parent's responsibilty to fill out the transcript. To get a transcript for your child that is graduating from CFA, you must send me reports for each high school year with grades/subjects/credits. Please keep excellent records of all work. If requested, we can provide the parent with information on how to prepare the transcript. Or you can find the infomation, by using a search engine such as www.google.com , and search for "homeschool transcript". You can also do a search for "homeschool diploma" as well.
If you are withdrawing your child(ren) from CFA & request CFA to fill out the transcript: We will create a transcript using the information prepared by the parent on the progress reports. We will then send the transcript to the parent. It is the parent's responsibility to provided the transcript to the new school. Fees apply if you want CFA to do the transcipt and/or mail the transcript .
*** Should you decide to withdrawal from Christian Fellowship Academy, you are required to mail in the CFA withdrawal form to inform us of your plans.***
