Our Graduation
Here's what we did:
We attended a special breakfast with our families the morning of graduation.
After the reception at church, we had a Southern Pig Picking Party at our house with friends and family. We played piano as the guests arrived. Then a group of homeschool friends, The Mountain Aires, entertained with their wonderful music. We are sure extended family members were surprised that homeschoolers could have so much fun!
- Mountain Aires
- The Mountain Aires are a group of wholesome, homeschooled, young acoustic musicians from North Carolina. Their award-winning style reflects a mature sense of creativity, beauty, and excitement. They play a unique blend of traditional acoustic music including bluegrass, Celtic, folk, old-time, and gospel on hammered dulcimer, guitar, banjo, mandolin, violin, and bass.
- Mountain Aires CD
- If you would like to purchase a CD you should contact them at this email address: info@mountainairesmusic.com
THIS CD IS A GREAT GRADUATION GIFT IDEA!

After Graduation, Then What?
- The Real World
- Some day they'll have to face the REAL WORLD!
Has anyone ever told you that? Perhaps when you started homeschooling or when they reached high school age, and most certainly if college was not the choice for higher education.
There is so much to learn and so many different ways. College is just one way to continue education. Learning should be a lifestyle that lasts a lifetime.
"Where is the wise man? Where is the scholar? Where is the philosopher of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world?" 1 Corinthians 1:20 - Knowledge Without College
- It was hard not to conform to the pattern of the world and yet convince friends and family that homeschool education HAS prepared us and will continue to prepare us for "real life" even after high school graduation. But why change a good thing? Real life learning at home is fun and it works!
"There are lots of things that never go by rule, there's a powerful pile o' knowledge that you never get at college" From "Anne of the Island" by L.M. Montgomery - Learning Entrepreneur
- There is so much to learn and so many different ways. College is just one way to further your education. College is not only expensive but time consuming and can be a dan
