Native Americans, British Redcoats, Colonial Minutemen, pioneers and pirates set aside their differences to enjoy the “America Discovered” Feast at Academy Days Homeschool Co-op recently. Pictured are the male and female costume contest winners from each history class. 

The Alabama Board of Education changed the graduation requirements for high schoolers who started as 9th graders in 2013-14 or after. However, these requirements are for public school students, not homeschoolers. According to Home School Legal Defense Association (HSLDA), homeschooling parents may choose any courses for their high school students, and they will not be limited in college admission, financial aid or military acceptance.
