"Rep. Chris Newton, R-Benton, who sponsored the lottery legislation in the House last session, has filed a bill that would lower - to a 19 on the ACT college entrance exam, instead of the current 23 - home-schooled students' eligibility requirements for lottery-funded scholarships."That's nice that someone cares about homeschooled children getting scholarships. My daughter was just asking about this yesterday - how to get a college scholarship. I'm so pleased that she's thinking ahead this way.
"While the Black Caucus and others fought and won the battle for lower requirements, home school students were held to a higher standard than that of conventional high school students."
