A different kind of learning….

I was in high school in the mid to late 80’s and I was homeschooled. Which at that time, was a rarity. I did my classes in the mornings. I biked to my job in the afternoons. I took care of my grandmother on the weekends. Prom was never a thing, I wasn’t on any sports team. But I learned the importance of taking care of family. I became an independent worker. I learned how to balance responsibilities. I also learned to value education and hard work.
