We are not to this point yet, obviously, with a kindergartener and 1st grader, but wanted to put the word out there for anyone who might qualify this year. Farm Credit is giving away 21 $1,500 scholarships to high school seniors pursuing agriculture careers. Applications are available online at farmcreditIL.com. The deadline to apply is February 28, 2014.
If you live in a state other than Illinois, you should check to see if your state offers Farm Credit Services and the scholarships.
We homeschool because we believe "There are two lasting bequests we can hope to give our children. One is roots; the other, wings." (Hodding Carter, Jr.) In order to help our children establish roots and spread their wings, we believe in...strength in family relationships...an intimate relationship with God...being socially active...networking within the community to make our town a better place...excellence in academics and life skills...and that we are never too old to yearn for knowledge.
