Couple of Talented Homeschoolers

In Texas and Florida

In Texas, this 10 year AND his parents would need the sleep with a homeschooling schedule:

Cayman has known he wanted to be an actor since his parents took him to see
Annie Get Your Gun on Broadway when he was 6. Back home in Rowlett, he quickly
began landing parts. At 7, when he played Tiny Tim in A Christmas Carol at
Pocket Sandwich Theatre, the rehearsals went until 11 p.m., which meant he
wouldn't get home until midnight. Then he'd get up at 7 a.m. for school. His
parents decided to home-school him so he could get enough sleep.

In Florida:
"When she was in first and second grade, she used to draw her own cartoon strip," said Cindy Johanson, who has home-schooled her daughter since first grade. "It was called 'Down by the Creek' and had a bunch of critters in it. One was a bug called B.U.G. When I asked her why it was named B.U.G., she said, 'Don't you know that people sometimes go by their initials?' "
