Very good student, but also a veryy well rounded kid. In Indiana, Eli Lilly (Indiana based business) gives a full tuition scholarship to any 4 year school. However, the school has to be in Indiana. They give out about 50 scholarships statewide each year.
My daughter is a very good student, but also very involved in extracurricular activities plus very involved in the community. These factors as well as an essay helped her secure the scholarship.
We are very fortunate she received such an honor. Also very, very proud of her.
We dropped her off at school yesterday and I have been pretty miserable since. She is our only child and it is very difficult, because we genuinely love being around each other. I know, pretty unusual for a teenager, but very true.
I was pretty bad the first 2 weeks. After that, it began to feel a little like being on vacation. No activities to cover, no places I "had" to be....
