College Praise Reports
Greetings Parents and students
Every year, we are continuing a tradition of reporting "praise reports" of our graduating seniors who are going off to college in the fall. We want to honor our seniors with recognition by mentioning their names (college acceptances) and to show them that we are very proud of their hard work, dedication, focus and merit achievement through their homeschooling journey.
