In addition to the basic grades and credits, the transcript can also include these items.
Course descriptions
Extracurricular activities
Areas of your child's interests and where that he led him - accomplishments, awards, leadership, travel
Making the Transcript
Start a transcript when your child is in the 9th grade and be certain to keep a back-up copy. At the end of each year update the transcript and print a hard copy for your files. Make a back-up copy of the file as well. Keep on top of extracurricular activities and achievements.
Starting in high school, you will use course titles. Gone are the terms spelling, vocabulary, and science. Now you must use course titles such as English I, Biology, Algebra, Economics, and so forth.
