Homeschool Manager review

Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026

Homeschool Manager helps homeschooling parents organize schoolwork and maintain records without supplying curriculum. Families can create weekly student schedules, add lessons, move or copy assignments between days, and assign tasks to multiple students. Students can check off work on a phone, while schedules and records can be printed. The product has been available since 2014 and is aimed at solo and small family setups that want planning and documentation in one place.

Its core strength is the link between day-to-day planning and formal records. Parents can track assignment completion and grades, record attendance and study hours, and export attendance and study-hour data to Excel. Book lists and volunteer-hour records extend the record-keeping scope, while printable report cards and transcripts help families assemble documentation. This makes it a fit for households that already choose their own curriculum and want a consistent way to organize lessons and preserve progress. It is less suitable for families looking for a curriculum provider or a broader teaching platform.

According to the vendor's pricing page, the Monthly plan is $5.99 per month, and the Annual plan is $49 per year; both include scheduling, grading, record keeping, report cards, transcripts, book lists, attendance, and volunteer-hour tracking. A 30-day trial is available, with no ongoing free plan. Homeschool Manager is web-based and cloud-based, and support is offered through email and documentation. Families seeking printable records and routine tracking may find the scope well matched; those requiring a dedicated mobile app or built-in curriculum should consider alternatives.
