Well, it is official. Our first homeschool graduate, Gregory, is now a college student. He is registered and we have his books sitting right here on the homeschool room table. We had an amazing surprise. He got an academic scholarship that is covering 100% of his tuition. So long as he keeps his grades up, the scholarship will follow him till he graduates. Yippee! The Pell grant will completely cover his books, fees, and he will even get a gas stippend if I understand it correctly. That is good because the grand total for the books alone came to $679.69!
