  • YOUR TAX DOLLARS AT WORK

    The feds are sending out 20 laminated posters (2′ x 3′) of historical American art to schools. Gratis. “Homeschool consortia” are eligible to apply. Fittingly, perhaps, the deadline is April 15th.

    UPDATE: If you decide to apply, don’t bother choosing “homeschool consortia,” even if you are trying to get the materials for a support group. The software won’t let you. Instead, I’d recommend you choose “private school.”

    We just make up a school name when we go for the teacher “freebies” from the Govt.

    When I woke up this morning, I hadn’t yet realized that I was the director of a private school.

    Thanks for the link!

    Actually, we have gotten some really cool stuff from NASA over the years. We also have a large laminated periodic table that came courtesy of my tax dollars.
