JIm - why would I make this up?

Think about it: a 4 year scholarship to - let's say - the Air Force Academy would be between $180,000 and $240,0000...

Harvard - about $40,000+/year X's 4 - $160,000
and if he got ten out of state offers at this amount, that would put him over the one million. This young man is exceptional.

Remember, I said cumulative....I think probably 25 schools offered him SOMETHING to total almost 1 million. And to make my story better, I could have lied and said he had ONE MILLION. But he didn't (although it was in the $900,000 range.)

I was dumbfounded as well. But it's true. The highest total award I knew about from Salem High School in Conyers, Georgia before this guy's was given to a girl, African-American, in 2001, for arouind $700,000 total. She took the athletic scholarship to University of Virginia for soccer. How much would Virginia cost? A lot, and multiply that kind of price times about 10 other similar schools, which she was offered, and there you have it. Jim, you just don't know what is going on in today's high schools. Trust me.
