How to Create an Education Plan

VIDEO: Planning for High School Graduation

The best way to determine which courses your student needs to take is to create a High School Education Plan. This tool helps you to map out a plan of study based on your student’s career goals and interests. This option is available once the student is enrolled or is 13+.

  • If the student has completed credits through another school, the transcripts can be uploaded during this process.

Once you have signed in as a parent through the Acellus App, select “Manage Enrollments”.

Then, click on “Create a Plan” under your student’s information.  (This option will not appear for students who are not at least 13.)

Creating a High School Education Plan

Follow the steps to enter in your student’s grade and goals/interests. Then you’ll be able to choose a pathway for graduation. (The system will suggest an option based on the information you provided earlier.)

Select a Grade Level

If your student completed courses through another high school they may be transferrable. (If you will not be transferring credit you can skip down to the Plan of Study below.)

Import Credits from other High Schools

To transfer credits, first enter the previous schools information. Then enter each transfer credit. (Only credits with a grade of C- or greater (or 70% and above) are eligible for transfer.)  Need help uploading a transcript?

Once you’ve added all the courses you’ll be transferring, click continue. Now you can upload your student’s transcript. You’ll need to confirm that the credits you’ve provided are correct and valid.

Now you are ready to set up the Plan of Study. This helps you map out what courses your student needs to take in order to graduate. Any transferred credits will be listed and included in the plan.
