Each year we submit about 20 applications for PHAA students for the Robert C. Byrd Scholarship-- this is a great scholarship for qualified students, as it does not involve lots of ´work´ for the student or family (no essays, no teacher recommendations, etc.

The form for the scholarship can be found at the PHEAA website -- just print it out, fill in all the info that you are supposed to, sign it, make sure we have an updated transcript (midyear senior grades required), and send everything required (including that college acceptance letter!) on to our office at least 2 weeks before the deadline ´mail in´ date of April 1, 2010.

As the PHEAA website is a little tricky to navigate, here´s a direct link to the needed info:

We´ll have further info on the Robert C. Byrd Scholarship in one of our MAGAZINE postings within a month, so that others can also know about this great scholarship-- we´ve had MANY students in our PHAA diploma program earn this one!

Thanks for giving me this suggestion on a helpful future post! Hope you take a look at our ´intro´ to our new online magazine, too ;-).

The Great Paper Chase

"Our two greatest problems are gravity and paper work. We can lick gravity, but sometimes the paper work is overwhelming."

- Dr Wember von Braun,

quoted from Time Management for Unmanageable People

Where is the school room in your house? Are you happy with it? Does it work well for all of the things you and your children do? Does it tend to be messy? Can you find things when you want them?

If you are like us and most of our friends, homeschooling is messy. We had a grandmother who would stop by for visits and poke her head into our school room....
