]]>But I can't imagine a college or university admissions official sees these classes as any more than clutter. Further, you're not doing the Acellus Academy graduates any favors by including elementary and middle school level classes on transcripts meant for higher education institutions.

Jennifer, I'm curious what these transcripts look like. On these transcripts Acellus sends out, I presume Acellus identifies the grade level of the courses taught and segregates out the HS credit level course from the elementary and middle school classes? I ask because on Acellus' parent page, the school does not. For example when I look at the completed classes list, I immediately know that Foundations of Music and Ancient Civilizations are not HS level classes ... but I only that because I was the one who enrolled my students in those classes personally, myself. The names are ambiguous and since they are rolled in with the other classes, my wife or anyone besides me who sees those classes, based on the parent page, wouldn't have any way to know that neither of those count towards HS credit.
]]>Are you saying that Acellus lists grades of elementary and middle school level Acellus classes on the transcripts sent to colleges and universities? If so, I would agree with you and my comprehension difficulty is that it seems to odd to be actually true. Part of our being here is my son's bad grades in elementary school, in addition to certain confidence and emotional issues he had been dealing with. Since then, he's turned things around. While I've personally got nothing to worry about in regards anyone seeing the grades he's earned taking middle school classes at Acellus, I do realize that some things should be left buried. Kids deal with whatever issues in their preeteen years and it seems to me that students should have a clear tabula rasa upon entering High School.
I agree that Acellus students should only have HS level classes that count towards graduation listed on the transcripts that get sent to colleges. It's rather shocking to do otherwise.
Assuming that's what you're saying is happening. Maybe I'm off, so again please clarify. Thanks.

I am posting this as I have seen several comments across both the official and unofficial Acellus Facebook groups that indicate interest in a high school only transcript. This would be helpful in determining high school GPA for the college admissions process. I have a hard time believing this isn't something that already exists - can someone from support please let me know how to get an official high school only transcript that can be shared with universities? If a high school only transcript does not currently exist, what can we do to institute a process for parents to obtain this information on behalf of their students' prospective colleges? Thank you!
