Ski Days!

Come and enjoy a day on the mountain with other Visions families and friends this winter at Sierra at Tahoe! Whether you know how to ski or snowboard or whether you are a beginner, there is an opportunity for you to have a blast in the snow.

These events are planned and supervised by Visions CTs Ty Beekman and Shelby Shupe. There are a variety of specially discounted packages. These events are not purchased with vouchers. Click on this flyer for all package and event details. Click here for the flyer.

To enroll your student and family in these events call Nancy Peterson, Home School event coordinator at (916) 971-5518. Do not enroll directly in Launchpad. Doing so will result in your order not being processed properly with the venue.

Homeschool Facebook Group


Would you like to connect with other homeschool families in this area? Share tips, tricks, and go on field trips together? 

Check out the Making Homeschool Fun Facebook page that is administered by our own local Ione Homeschool mom Audre Fowler. I can't say enough good things about this group :)

Report Card Preview

During our LP5 meeting, we will be focusing on semester report cards.

We have plenty of time, but I wanted to give you a preview of the process and the K-5 report cards so you can download them, look them over, and let me know if you have any questions.


Kindergarten through 5th grade:
Parents will fill out a standards based report card prior to our LP5 meeting. We will go over the report card at that meeting. Then, I will generate and print an official copy for Visions and one for you that I will bring to our LP6 meeting.

.doc format (Microsoft Word, can edit on the computer)
Grade K Standards Based Report Card
Grade 1 Standards Based Report Card

.pdf format (Not editable digitally)
Grade K Standards Based Report Card
Grade 1 Standards Based Report Card
Grade 4 Standards Based Report Card
Grade 5 Standards Based Report Card

6th through 12th grade:
Parents will provide me LP5 grades at our LP5 meeting, I will calculate the cumulative grades from LP1-LP5 and enter them in to Launchpad. Visions will create and send the report card to you.
