What Parents Say About Trent
Dear Mrs. Warren:
I have to thank you and Trent since it was your program that helped her find her passion (art history) and gave her the foundation to be successful in her chosen field. The Trent curriculum made all the difference in her life. We are both grateful.

We would like to express how much [our daughter] has benefited from the challenges and freedoms your program has provided her. She is definitely a more confident student having found a greater appreciation for what a quality education can provide. Whether a novice or sage, I would certainly recommend Trent Schools to all embarking on the journey of homeschooling! Your administration and curriculum by far exceeded our expectations. Thank you again!

Dear Mrs. Warren
Cathy is currently a sophomore at Yavapai College in Prescott,
Arizona and is a member of Phi Theta Kappa honor society. Cathy
will be transferring to either the University of Arizona or the
University of Northern Arizona in the fall of 2007 when she has
completed her general education requirements.
Cathy plans to major in Art History. She credits her interest
in art history to Trent's fine arts classes. She wants to become
an art appraiser with an emphasis in Renaissance and Baroque paintings.
She is doing well in all of her classes and in her personal life.
Her educational background and work ethic seems to impress her
professors. She likes to credit Trent for that as well. I would like to thank you, personally, and the Trent staff, for
each of your parts, in her success. Trent not only gave her an
excellent education but the confidence to succeed.
Many thanks,
Cathy's mom

Dear Mrs. Warren,
That was fast! The diploma and transcript just came in the mail
today. We're very proud of the diploma and that 3.8 GPA.
Thanks so much to you and Trent Schools. Because of your help
in this, his 12th grade, Jeff's SAT score was 1340 and he is now
enrolled at Saint Rosa Jr. College and looking forward to a successful
college career. Considering that he had a .62 GPA in his 10th
grade and 1.90 in the 11th, I don't think he could have done it
without you.
I tell everyone who asks about it that for some young people,
being away from the distractions and temptations of the modern
school environment enables them to focus better on study and self
improvement.
Trent School's online study program removes all the excuses. Jeff
only had to be reminded occasionally that it was his commitment
and his responsibility to keep it. Unlike his previous school
career, there was nothing in his way that he couldn't control.
Given that he was entirely in charge of his study schedule, (and
that I could control his environment to eliminate the competition
for his attention), he was able to stay on track and get the job
done.
I think a lot of kids, like Jeff, could perform better in Trent
Schools' program than they do in the public schools. I would recommend
your program to anyone who is willing to establish a distraction-free
environment for learning when their child is not performing as
well as they should in the outside school environment.
Thanks again,
Daniel

Hi Ruth,
I am so glad that we are homeschooling Linda! I have showed her
lessons to some of my friends and family, and every one of them
tells me that the math skills are about right for first grade,
but your Language arts, social studies and science are what Texas
students do in about 4th grade in our public schools. Fourth Grade!
Plus, her social studies lessons are more comprehensive, because
you include the history of religions in your lessons, which our
public schools explicitly avoid. And the fine arts that she is
learning are not taught until about the 6th grade! The schools
here are just terrible, and they pump up a kid's self esteem,
because they bring home A's, but they graduate functionally illiterate
kids! I know -- I have had to work with some of their graduates
in my practice, and after passing and graduating from high school,
they couldn't pass the placement exams in college to get into
regular college classes.
. . .The schools here just don't prepare kids for college!

home. I have been married four years and have had quite an interesting
path since graduating high school! Hope all is well at Trent.
