Everything the year throws at you.

One app, five tabs, for the whole household. Here is the tour, in the order you will meet it.

The school day, in one list.

Today opens on what is in front of you: each lesson at its time, with the child it belongs to. Filter to the one at the table, tick things off as they happen, and see how the week is going at the top.

The Today screen, showing the school day for two children.

Capture from the kitchen table.

Photograph a worksheet, a project, a book or a field trip. Choose whose work it is and which lesson it belongs to, and one save files the sample, logs the minutes and marks the lesson done. No signal? It waits on your phone and sends the next time you open the app online.

A plan that bends without breaking.

See the week or the month. Take a day off and choose what happens to its work: push it back, fit it in, or skip it. Catch up, shift a course, or add a work day, and every tool shows what it will move before it moves it. Loop courses come round every school day; block courses fit their own dates.

The week view, each day with its subjects.

Your shelf, not a store.

Bring the books you already own. Add lessons by hand or from a link, or with Family Plus photograph a table of contents or a lesson plan and let Home Scholar draft the course, chapter by chapter. You check every line before it becomes real, then choose the pace and see the finish date.

A math course, its pace and its lessons by chapter.

Progress you can actually read.

Planned, completed, skipped and missed, month by month, measured against your own plan rather than anyone else’s. Grades by category with averages for each course, and test scores with their percentiles charted across the years.

The Year So Far, a chart of planned, completed and missed lessons.

Records that know the law.

Tell Home Scholar your state and program, and it asks for exactly what they require: the filings, the log, the portfolio, the evaluation, and the days or hours where they count. Each deadline is dated from your own filings and cited to the statute.

Room for the whole household.

A reading list with sittings and a plan. Chores and routines beside the lessons. Classes and co-op on the same days. Your calendars brought in, and the school calendar published back out. Another parent or a tutor with only the access you give them, and a child with a quiet screen of their own.
