Homeschool Science Academy is sponsoring a research paper contest for students ages 11 – 18.  Deadline for entries is January 31, 2010.  First place is a Dell Vostra 1720 Laptop Computer (17 inch screen).  This would be a great way to combine science and English as your teen researches the topic “How Does Human Anatomy and/or Physiology Support the Biblical Account of the Creation of Humans?”

Are you looking for a once in a lifetime graduation present for your teen that the whole family can enjoy?  The Lukeion Project offers the ultimate in a homeschool field trip as Regan and Amy Barr, homeschool parents and archeologists, lead an 11-day excursion to Turkey. Stops include Troy, Istanbul, Ephesus, and many more. Space is limited, so act now!

During the high school years, your teen may participate in a number of different extracurricular activities such as community service, part time jobs, sports, music, and others.  Keep track of these activities along with any awards/honors that your teen receives on a simple record sheet.
