Hooray for Scholarships!

Lissie has worked so hard this past year.  I convinced her to take three AP classes for the chance to graduate with honors, and she increased her dance instruction to four times per week.  Her senior year was very busy and very productive.  The poor girl was sleep deprived for much of each week, and welcomed the weekends of downtime.  The requirements for scholarship applications -- especially writing all those essays -- added to her workload.  But we are pleased that the scholarship committees recognized her hard work and achievements.  By the end of May, she had been awarded four separate academic scholarships, AND she graduated with honors.

Kudos, Lissie!  And Congratulations, Everyone!
