 Each year, an estimated $46 billion in grants and scholarship money is awarded by the U.S. Department of Education and the nation’s colleges and universities. In addition, about $3.3 billion in gift aid is awarded by private sources. But how do you get a piece of the pie?  On February 5th we welcome Valerie Gill, “The Scholarship Lady” who offers workshops and private sessions that assist students in applying to college, and submitting scholarship applications. We’re live on https://fbrn.us/ in the BLUE stream and also on Facebook Live @nogginfoundation.  

 In 2016 about 1.7 million students (ages 5-17) were homeschoolers.  There are so many ways to homeschool that it can be difficult to know where to start.  Or, if you would like to change up what your're currently doing, what options are available to you?  Join us as educators and veteran homeschool moms Ramona Walden and Lynzee Bolton share their experience and offer solutions to the homeschool question.  We're live on fbrn.us and live on Facebook Noggin Educational Foundation from 11-Noon.  We would love for you to call in with questions or share your experiences.  214-431-5062 

 A report by the Aspen Institute in 2016, stated that three out of four American households (56.6 percent) have at least one school-aged child participating in youth sports.  Because of the commitment involved it can be difficult to balance sports and education.  This week we welcome Chauncey Franks, former player, former college football coach, and current chaplain of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes at Texas Christian University.  Also joining us will be TCU Linebacker, Garrett Wallow.  We will discuss balancing sports and education and what to expect as a college athlete.  Catch us live on https://fbrn.us/ or Facebook Live Noggin Educational Foundation.
