It’s back! The Homeschool Attendance Record for 2021-2022 is here!
I can tell that homeschool moms are starting to mentally switch over to next year due to the many emails that are trickling in regarding the attendance record. We just finished up our school year on Friday, so my thoughts are starting to roll for next year as well.
Because the calendar is so simple – and I need a whole lot of simple – the style for the attendance record is staying the same again for this coming year.
The simplicity of the homeschool attendance record is what makes it so fabulous, in my opinion.
Keep reading below and I’ll show you how I use this easy calendar in my own homeschool year after year.

Homeschool Attendance Record 2021-2022
With a multitude of children to school, loose papers everywhere tend to be a challenge. I am a bit old school in that I still like a paper copy of something, as opposed to a digital copy. So the papers I do have need to be streamlined.
I continue to use my little attendance record because it is so streamlined. I print the calendar front to back, so it is one sheet of paper for the entire school year.
It’s just a lovely thing.
At the front of my homeschoom mom notebook, I print this Homeschool Attendance calendar on card stock so the holes won’t tear during the school year.
There are a couple of variations for using this attendance page. Here are a few ideas for using it in your own homeschool:
→ Place a check mark in the days your children complete school. This is what I do.
→ If you need to keep track of multiple kiddos, just create a key. For example, Child #1 is a check mark. Child #2 is a circle. Child #3 is a triangle. Or you could color code them and use a check mark or dot. For example, Child #1 is a blue check. Child #2 is a red check. Child #3 is a green check.
→ If you already know you won’t do school for big chunks of time (vacation, for example), go ahead and cross those off your calendar. It makes it easier to see the big picture.
How to Use the Homeschool Attendance Record
I like simple, so I make sure this attendance record is easy to use. At the end of each month, you’ll see two slots. Here is how to fill them in:
→ Beside Total Days: Write the total school days completed for the month.
→ Beside Cumulative: Keep a running tally of the total school days completed for the year. Just add on the days completed each month.
Super easy!
You can take a look at the school year we just finished up:
This calendar runs with July-December 2021 on one side and January-June 2022 on the other.
Make sure you print it double-sided so you only have to keep up with one piece of paper!

Waterfalls of Wisdom – Oh, say, can you see
Thanks for making these every year! I love to use them over the summer to start planning out our school year. I print an attendance sheet for each subject, block out the weeks that we plan to take off (about every 7 weeks, we take a week off) and then write the lesson numbers for each day. It helps me pace our school year well. We don’t always stay right on track, but usually we get ahead in one subject and slow down in another, so then I can ease up where we get ahead and pare down to get back on track where we were too slow. It also helps me plan for subjects we do every other day. I love having this as a resource.
i just love love love this attendance tracker! it’s perfect and just what i’m looking for. I really like how you’ve grayed the weekends and organized everything with such simplicity. Thank you so much xo
I’m so glad you can use it, Jennifer! Really appreciate your kind comment!

I love this tracker I used it last year. I have tried to get this years emailed to me but it is not working. Can you help please?

When will the new 2022-2023 attendance record be out? I love this resource!
Hey Sarah! I am so sorry I missed your comment!
I always do one of these pages, as I use them every year without fail! I try to get them out right at the very beginning of June, as in the first week or so. Honestly, sometimes it’s more towards mid-June.
But I’ll try to go ahead and get it up soon!

Sounds good! We are moving over the summer so I’m trying to get organized before we go! I recommend your tracker to homeschool moms all the time! So thankful for your resources.
I really appreciate you telling others about it – thank you for that!
Moving is not for the faint of heart!! Bless you as you get settled. ❤
