Music, Composer Study, Artist Study, Handcrafts, Folk Songs, Hymns, Foreign Language, Free reading, and Poetry. Do these sound like the always-just-out-of-reach icing on the cake?

Are these just special treats reserved for the super-organized mom sitting next to you at home school group? Well, Sue Pruett would like to encourage you that you CAN do these, and give your children the excellent education you desire for them! These subjects are just as vital as history, math, and science to your curriculum! Come, learn how you can have that icing on the cake – and give it to your children, as well – even first thing in the morning! (Now who’s mother ever told them to have dessert first?!)

STRAIGHT TALK ABOUT COLLEGE
Today, students leave college with an average student loan debt of about $30,000.
Only 53% of entering college freshmen graduate within six years, and almost
half of college sophomores show no significant improvement in learning compared
to when they entered college. At the end of it all, students often have no idea
what they want to do with their life, and, sadly, they discover that only about half
of their graduating class can even find a job. It doesn't have to be this way! What if there were ways
for your student to discover their life purpose first and then build a college education around that?
What if they could earn a college degree debt-free in less than four years? What if your student could
be 30% more likely to find a job upon graduation because they were spiritually mentored and prepared
to pursue their God-given calling? Would you be interested in learning more?
