[Oasfaa] PJ question

[Good, Linda]

I can’t recall we’ve ever been asked to do such a thing, but I’m enjoying the conversation.  Our population is a little different from yours, Jonna. ☺

I will say that we’ve done some pretty hefty COA adjustments for musical instruments, if the music faculty document the necessity for the student’s program.

Happy Friday everyone and good luck!  We start this coming Monday.  Hopefully we won’t have the rain we did yesterday.

That’s la very incomplete list, those poor kids are going to be sorely unprepared for the real world.   Here are some suggestions:

A.  A full human skeleton (plastic replica acceptable).  Very difficult to teach anatomy without a 3 dimensional model.

B.  A complete chemistry set, including beakers, bunsen burners, etc.  A poster of Dr Bunsen Honeydew from the muppets would serve well for inspiration.

C.  “Mastering the Art of French Cooking”, dvds of Julia Child’s The French Chef & Dan Ackroyd’s version as well. The Swedish Chef for extra credit.

D.  “ Everybody Poops”.

Didn’t someone mention that the list-serv was a little boring?  Enjoy!

We allow families to submit Homeschool expenses to us and we use PJ to reduce their income. Most put things like curriculum, computer software etc on the list so it's usually a minimal amount.



Some are so ridiculous that I will def say no but I'll include all of the categories in case you need a good chuckle this week.



If you would allow an adjustment for homeschool expenses, would you allow for:

Instruments (violin, clarinet etc)

Driver's Ed

Dance

Graduation expenses

Field trips for Music competitions



Seriously...you can't make this stuff up.  Please let me know what, if any, of these you would allow as homeschool expenses.



Thanks in advance,

Jonna
