When I was in school dual enrollment didn't mean you were a college student full time. You still attended high school but took college credits to get them out of the way, mainly associates types gen. Ed. Classes. Was more of a head start for students that were disciplined and showed initiative. 10 years to retirement! Just waiting! | |||

Open an investment account in his name, dump it in there. Teach him compounding interest. Ten years from now, that $500 will be many thousands of dollars. ______________________________________________________ Often times a very small man can cast a very large shadow | |||

In Florida you can graduate high school on the same exact day you graduate college with your two year associates degree. Its pretty common. Its called dual enrollment. I did something similar 20 years ago. My senior year, I basically went to high school in the morning, went to homeroom, and then left for the day to attend college classes and work. 18 years old with a 2 year degree, 20 years old with a 4 year degree. ______________________________________________________ Often times a very small man can cast a very large shadow | |||

Wow, over-react much? Who exactly is buying his non-existent vote? It might be because a lot, if not all, colleges have had to reduce services during the pandemic. I know of plenty of students who are furious to be paying full tuition for online classes and being locked out of lab courses. Consider it his textbook fund. If you want something to be outraged about, textbook prices should do it. | |||

to you and OttoSig. When I was in high school (1950s) no such thing existed in Michigan. I have no children and was not aware of that policy. I did have 2 "genius" fellow students who graduated early (at 16) and began college. One was George Zweig, who later was one of the 3 scientists who formulated the Quark Theory of matter. flashguy Texan by choice, not accident of birth | |||

My uncle skipped two grades at Detroit Lutheran High School back then and it was odd for him because the other kids were two years older. My son, on the other hand is with 80 other students his age doing the same thing. | |||
