Just wanted to let you know how incredibly helpful your book Setting the Records Straight was when I needed to write transcripts. Without exaggeration it was life changing! It's been many years now (about 10) since I graduated my daughters. I was so nervous that I wouldn't be able to articulate their education in a sellable way to our local university. I was wrong. It worked! They all got in, and even got scholarships. My youngest is an electrical apprentice but should he ever need the transcript, it is ready. When I saw you on Instagram, I felt like I should say hi and let you know how immensely helpful your book was. It helped me feel confident in a situation in which I felt very insecure. I hope all homeschool moms that feel insecure will find your book.

I loved Finding a College. It was so helpful, so much great information! You shared many of the concerns that I had about college. I see so many "so called" Christian Colleges/University's that are no different than a secular school. That concerns me. I will continue to pray, I know God can always change things, but that was really neat.

Thank you so much Lee!!!! I have loved all of the webinars I have watched and really appreciate the workbooks! This has been my first year homeschooling. I have a son in 9th grade and his sister will join him next year. A lot of people thought we were crazy for starting homeschooling in high school, but with the help of fellow homeschoolers and your wonderful resources (recommended to me a friend), we have survived our first year!!! Thanks for all of your help!

I want to highly recommend Lee's services to anyone who has questions about the high school years! I had a consultation with her yesterday and it was so helpful and amazing to watch the transcript fill before my very eyes. I think as homeschoolers we can be VERY critical of our little schools and I didn't even realize how much was learned last year. Lee's service is truly a blessing and her rates are very reasonable! I will be using her service again next year and probably every year until both of my older kids are graduated.

Thank you for your educational website. The Total Transcript Solution has been very helpful! In the last month -- since we found your site -- we have been making changes regarding our record keeping etc. Your other articles have also been beneficial in the planning for future courses, CLEPS and SAT preparation, etc. Thank you for the work that you have done in assisting families in their desire to homeschool high school. Both Jonathan and I have been raving about your website! He is a public school teacher (a fantastic one!) and has been sharing your website with his colleagues - he is enjoying his copy of essay topics. I have shared your site with other homeschool parents and they have also been extremely impressed with your vast catalogue of information. We will be sure to add your website to our handouts when we speak at homeschool events up here in Ontario. I look forward to speaking with you in the future. Wishing you continued success. A new fan!

The High School Solution is an online membership site designed to support and encourage parents who are homeschooling their children through high school. A veteran homeschool mom herself, Lee Binz shares the tried-and-true tips and tricks she learned while preparing her own children for college and while helping other homeschool parents do the same. The High School Solution is well organized, and it is easy to find what you are looking for. As I viewed more material in the High School Solution, I came to realize how expertly each presentation builds off the previous one. While Lee is consistent in her message and does sometimes reiterate something that she has said previously, each webinar is substantially different and stands on its own as a course. I am impressed with the depth of information. After viewing the material on the middle school years, I found myself wishing that I had known about the High School Solution when my oldest child, now a rising senior, was in middle school. It might have saved me a lot of sleepless nights. I am thankful to have these materials as my second child enters her eighth-grade year with my third child following close behind. I breathed a sigh of relief while watching “Senior Year Step-by-Step.” As my son approaches his senior year, I have been a little overwhelmed by all I need to do to make sure that his homeschool career ends successfully. Lee cleared those worries out of my way and gave me a practical plan to follow throughout the year. I came away feeling very positive about approaching this last year of high school and the college application process. I particularly appreciated how her presentation focused not only upon the practical aspects of senior year, but the emotional challenges that are to come as my child prepares to leave the nest. I’ve also enjoyed listening to Lee’s webinars on independent homeschooling and planning high school courses. Lee stresses throughout the High School Solution the importance of documenting your child’s unique path in such a way that his talents and interests are apparent on his transcript. I’ve come to realize what a great high school career my son has had and how fortunate we are to have been able to homeschool him. I have stacks of index cards full of notes and a heart full of peace. Whether you are just beginning to contemplate homeschooling through high school or find yourself in the thick of course planning and college requirements, the High School Solution is an indispensable resource. Lee Binz’s practical advice and wonderful encouragement will build confidence and guide you through the joys and pitfalls of homeschooling high school. I wish I had found this resource a few years earlier, but I am happy to have it now as my oldest child finishes high school and his younger siblings follow closely behind.

I bought the High School Solution last week and I am part way through the first presentation. So far, I am really liking it. I am green, green, green to home school so I had no expectations except to learn. My favorite part so far is the overview. I'm learning a lot and feel like it is doable. I'm good at organizing and planning I just needed some direction. Some help. After I bought it, I skimmed through it and felt overwhelmed. I was happy to get your email the next morning suggesting a starting point. Thank you. It's all been helpful. I'm a happy customer.

I wanted to make sure we started the high school years right in our homeschool. I had heard Lee speak at a conference and a good friend highly recommended her resources, so I went ahead and purchased an online access bundle. I'm SO glad I did. I feel more confident and prepared now as we head into 9th grade. And for those days when I don't feel quite so confident, I know Lee and her excellent resources will be there to help.

I just finished going through it and I am amazed at the wealth of information you have provided for homeschool parents and their high schoolers. As I am in thick of the application and admission process, I can confidently say that you have done your homework very thoroughly, the information you share is right on, and this product is going to save many homeschool parents time, energy and money. It is by far the best resource I have seen on homeschooling high school for college preparation and admission. Also, your encouragement is awesome. I loved the Prologue for Easy Truth About Course Descriptions. You not only broke the process of writing course descriptions into small, easy steps, but also gave Scripture to inspire and comfort along the way. You understand the concerns, anxieties and questions of homeschooling parents and effectively address them all. Not until recently did I realize that creating a Comprehensive Record is a process to be maintained throughout the high school years, not an event that I can just check off and be done with. You address this idea in your material and it keeps the expectations of the user in check so that he or she does not become weary of it "never ending." Your understanding of the admission process was awesome too. As I said, you have done your homework and the experiences and information you share will save many parents hours and hours of time and effort. Your product is worth every penny and I can't wait to recommend this new resource to all of my homeschooling friends. Great job and thank you so much for sharing your work, energy, time and expertise with the rest of us. You have been the best resource for my homeschool high school.

During the registration process, one of the representatives stopped me and said, 'Your documents for your son were amazing. We would like to use them as a model for others, as they were really helpful for us and especially for homeschoolers!' Of course, I followed the Comprehensive Record Solution that you provide, and heard about your success with the admission process…. but never expected to hear it for our own admission! I believe that his homeschool accomplishments, along with his Comprehensive Record enabled to set him up for an amazing start for his first year of college. It was super fun to be able to customize it to make it a little bit of a portfolio as well. We used many of the things you modeled in the Comprehensive Record for a music resume that we supplied to each audition at colleges he applied for. He actually received a higher scholarship offer from another university. Thank you AGAIN for a wonderful resource and training you provide to help us along the way. I would love to give everyone a vote of confidence for you! Thanks!

I'm just a grateful mom who wouldn't do without Lee's continued valuable help at this point in my homeschool career! I still have two in high school so I have a ways to go and I still depend on her wisdom and wonderful resources for those of us who are homeschooling through high school. Lee's input enabled me to prepare a "Comprehensive High School Record" for my son which allowed me to present in a college-friendly format his uniqueness and his strengths, along with the details of the rigorous education he had received here at home. He was accepted into the college of his choice, and I received feedback from the academic dean and the admitting office that the content was exactly what they wanted to see for review purposes. I would not have known where to start without the specific and very encouraging help she gave.

Lee, I was skeptical about the value of the College Launch Solution when I first heard about it. But thanks to your emails, I have watched all three of your videos (leading up to the live webinar), and I am now sold on the value of the College Launch Solution! Thank you for offering a Teen Track! Our two current high schoolers need to hear directly from you. Your 10 Critical C's of College and Career Success is outstanding. I want to hear more about developing an "elevator pitch" for each of our kids. And I want to hear more about using amazing words to make the college application essay stand out. I have experienced so much fear and panic about homeschooling high school, especially because of the ongoing struggles with my health. You have been the answer to my prayers for help. Although I attended a public high school, my dad was my guidance counselor and college coach. You're right, we can do this!

I knew I had to prepare transcripts for college admission, and my son had taken the SAT, but I knew NOTHING about what I should be doing to prepare for college admissions. I decided to purchase the Gold Care Club, learned loads about junior year and homeschooling high school through the Club and Lee's other materials, and was able to prepare a transcript, go to a college fair, visit colleges, and finish my course descriptions by the beginning of senior year. Having Lee to advise you and hold your hand as you navigate the process will ensure success, as long as you do your part. She's helped me with two boys now, and both have been accepted to the colleges of their choice with scholarships at each one. I encourage you to learn all you can from Lee's materials and take advantage of all the support she has for you for this year--you CAN do it!

I received so much wonderful help and support from Lee over the years. I'm pleased with how the whole home school journey has turned out. Our oldest son, Daniel, is currently a junior in Mechanical Engineering at University of Cincinnati, our daughter, Pearl, is a sophomore in nursing working toward a BSN specializing in Women's Health at Christ College and working as a PCA at the Christ Hospital. Our youngest son, Luke, is a sophomore in high school and attending Cincinnati State Technical College. He is participating in football in our Public School District thanks to the 'Tim Tebow bill' passed in Ohio 3 years ago. He plans to pursue a career path in law, for now. We would not be where we are without Lee. She was an amazing support to us in some of our MOST CHALLENGING times of our family lives. We thank her for all her wisdom and support.

I watched Lee's 1 hour Grades, Credits and Transcripts Webinar. While watching it, all of my fears melted away and I was reminded of why we started homeschooling in the first place! It was the joy of learning, and a blessing from God! She gave me detailed instructions on how to grade our work, give credits, and make transcripts that included high school level work from previous years. Lee has done her homework, and done it well! I’m thrilled to be able to use her expertise to make my own transcripts for my children "Lee has also given me tips on making sure that I don't forget to include the extras that we do every day to impress colleges with our sometimes unconventional achievements. My son was thrilled when I told him that he could have his summer break back. After all, this is High School. This is the "real thing". It's time to have a real summer vacation. Just think, we may even learn a thing or two this summer, and don't worry, thanks to Lee, I'll be able to put it all on his transcript. ;0)

Hello Lee, I recently attended your webinar, "12 Keys to High School Success" free workshop. I just wanted to compliment you on your presentation. It was very helpful and encouraging. And I think it was even better than previous presentations. Kudos! I particularly appreciated the month-by-month meltdown calendar! It was good to know that you understand and feel the difficulties; it provided a clear road map to present the 12 keys in a logical and applicable manner. It also provided a doorway for me to get connected again to the many resources I have already purchased on your site (after a couple of years of complete overwhelm when it pained me to even think on clicking on any more info/help...I guess I was stressed-paralyzed.) So again, thank you. (And I'm starting to put my weak areas first!)
