Celtic Ball

Written by Songbird

The Celtic Ball is a formal evening of Scottish country dancing and traditional music. The ball will be held at the beautiful Christian Community Church North 5586 Olentangy River Rd. Columbus, Ohio. The ball is for age fourteen and up and light refreshments will be served. Appropriate evening attire is requested. Dance instruction is courtesy of Scottish Country Dancing and Traditional Music. There is limited space which will fill up quickly so you need to send in your registration soon! The dance will be held on Saturday, December 3, 2011 from 7:00-10:00pm. There will be a dance practice from 12:00-3:00pm that afternoon. Tickets are $30.00per person by November 19th and $35.00 after November 19th. I have attended the Celtic Ball several times and it is a great night full of fun that everyone can enjoy. All attenders should read the Celtic Ball invitation in order to understand the rules and dress codes fully. Remember the Celtic Ball is NOT a Co-op run dance. It is a Christian Homeschool dance which is fully independent from Co-op. If you have questions you can e-mail Rebekah Richendollar at thecelticball@gmail.com

SAT ACT

Written by Songbird

Once you are in high school and getting close to graduation, you will start preparing to take the SAT ACT tests so that you can become accepted into different colleges. Like public school students homeschoolers have to take the SAT and ACT tests at approved testing sites. These sites and the dates of the tests can be found on the internet. Different colleges accept different tests, so you will either have to take one or both of the tests to be accepted in the college of your choice. There are multiple sections of the test which you must take and it takes several hours to complete. There are portions on Math, writing, and several other subjects. The tests seem quite challenging, but if you are well prepare you can exceed above your expectations.
