ASPSF News teachers inspired my friend to further his education, Single parent Scholarship Fundsare the same for hundreds of mothers and fathers here in arkansas. http://asis.jonesnet.org/singleparent/news.htm
Extractions: by Ralph H. Nesson A recent conversation with a friend brought home ever so poignantly the critical importance of encouragement. Raised in a Middle Eastern country wracked by poverty and violence, my friend decided at the age of eighteen that he had no possibility of developing and using his skills in his homeland. American teachers at a local university urged him to apply for scholarships abroad, an effort he enthusiastically undertook. The University of Chicago offered him substantial financial aid and he leaped at the opportunity to study at that renowned institution. After graduation, his pursuit of a business career led him to his current position as a president of a very successful construction firm in northwest Arkansas. With a wonderful wife and three children, he feels that he made excellent choices for himself and his family. Just as those American teachers inspired my friend to further his education, Single Parent Scholarship Funds are doing the same for hundreds of mothers and fathers here in Arkansas. Our scholarships represent an opportunity to learn and grow and prepare for a life-transforming career. Positive interaction with Fund board members is the starting point for such a dramatic change in one's life: this form of community support is at the heart of what we do, enabling single parents to open many doors for themselves!

Extractions: Pros and Cons of Educational Options In Arkansas, the compulsory attendance law requires children ages 5-17 to be in school. Parents have three options in providing for the education of their children: public school, private school and home school. A decision of this magnitude involving the education of your child deserves careful study and calm reflection. All three options have advantages and disadvantages to be weighed carefully. Public education offers the following advantages: It is already paid for by taxes which are mandatory whether a child is educated in the public schools or not. Public education offers a well-accepted path to a recognized high school diploma, and offers assistance in continuing education in college with some scholarship opportunities not available outside public education. Public education institutions have good resources for teaching: laboratories, trained personnel, administration, etc. Public education institutions offer many opportunities for extracurricular activities, which are usually not available to those outside public education. Transportation to and from school, and even to some extracurricular activities is available.

Extractions: powered by FreeFind Alcohol and Other Drug Prevention: The Parent Connection Two of the biggest concerns parents have when they send their sons and daughters to college are whether they will be safe, and whether they will do well academically. Both of those concerns are legitimate, and both are closely related to alcohol and other drugs, whether used by the student or by their fellow students. So parents deserve to know what schools are doing to curb alcohol and other drug use, and college administrators must be prepared to answer tough questions about their alcohol and other drug prevention policies and programs.
