Education Underway

I finally heard back from the fine folks who administer the Arkansas GED. They sent me an entire email full of information on how your 16 or 17 year old can get their GED.
However, I have an 18 and a 19 year old that need GED's.
That is a whole nother can of worms- requiring an additional email.

The boys were urged to come ASAP.
AT ONCE, if possible, to get registered. They have a battery of qualifying pre-tests to take. It was not made clear whether or not the actual pre-tests will begin today.
So they are off to see the Wizard.

A step in the direction of higher education.
I spent an hour and a half between the first email and the second, looking for some paperwork proving they had taken the TABE back three or so years ago, and never did find it. That was one of the tests the 16 and 17 year olds must take. It wasn't necessary to have it if you are "an adult". And my boys are adults.

Cut the strings and let them go, Mama.

Ah, the sweetness of them becoming adults. There are some things you can no longer do for them.
