Mission

Preparing for the Portfolio Review
Since it is portfolio season again, here is a SIMPLIFIED page of how-to's. Just use this as an abbreviated summary for everything that needs to go into the box you ship us. All work that is completed between September 1 and August 31 of the same school year needs to be sent to the assigned advisor before the following October 31 (to avoid a $25 late fee.)
As you prepare to send yours, here is a checklist that will help to ensure all the necessary pieces are in place, along with links to the relevant forms.

GREETINGS: We are approaching a blending time for the NARHS students as they see the light at the end of the road for their work during the 2017-18. At the same time, thoughts turn toward planning for next year. Rainbow Resource Center is already sending out teams to homeschool conventions with curriculum that will whet your appetite for new delicious studies.
Even we are planning ahead with some offers for you that could be a tremendous help. One is a packaged U.S. history course described during the 3rd section of this letter.
