    I just coordinated the signing of articulation agreement between the middle school and the community college here so that DS10 can take classes under tuition waiver. I'm so excited. It's just basic high school courses (Advanced algebra and pre-calc next year) but he'll have real-live instructors instead of online for the next 2 yrs.

    Thanks everyone. DS is excited too. I'm hoping he can meet a professor who might be able to mentor (I'm not really in a position to mentor him--I derive great satisfaction when I can help him solve a difficult problem, but there are several I say "I don't know how they got this answer" (we're going through SAT practice test and they just give the answer, no explanation).
