Urgent Attention Needed Today! 1-22-24

I'm sorry to see this. I'm not on any social media (partially because people are so rude), so I don't get to see what others are saying about PEP anywhere but here. I did open and close my emails to them with gratitude, and was polite to their staffers on the phone. Giving the benefit of doubt to other homeschool moms, sometimes when you're passionate about something, you can forget your manners without meaning to, particularly in text.

It would take more time than I have now to say how profoundly this scholarship has benefited us. We have always homeschooled our kids, and it's never been financially easy to do that in South Florida on one income. With inflation, it's been harder than ever. This scholarship has been a game changer for us! My kids have opportunities now that we couldn't afford to give them over the last 3 years. For example, because PEP reimburses us for piano lessons and books, and will reimburse us for our curriculum going forward, we have the flexibility to explore some of their other educational interests, like cooking, weaving, and architecture. Whether we're able to fix the issues we're complaining about or not, we are so grateful to have a homeschool scholarship at all! Please pass that along to our legislators.

Thank you!
