On Saturday, May 28, Cub Scout Pack 111 from Crofton took part in a special ceremony at Crownsville Veterans Cemetery honoring fallen veterans for Memorial Day. Representatives from Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, and more were on hand to help place a new American flag on each gravestone of approximately 18,000 veterans buried at the memorial cemetery. The annual tradition is a wonderful way to honor those who gave their lives in service to their country.

Sophisticated Studies is a drop-off homeschool tutorial for students who are ready to work with less coaching from the instructor. We use group-projects, games and discussions, infused with art and physical activity to lead them through learning, practice and discovery.
Our well-known homeschool tutorial provides an original curriculum that is customized to each group of enrolled students each semester. We first get to know you and your student(s) and then work to find the what and how that works best for this collection of human beings. Our strategies are highly interactive, play-based, art-integrated and often project-based. We craft an experience based on your student without leaving your student to drive instruction on their own. Each 3-hour session weaves a combination of skills across academic subjects (including "specials") into activities. We send home work samples and walk parents through what we did, encouraging you to take pictures, ask questions, and make requests. Rather than organizing based on age, we organize based on minimum skills and then provide open-ended activities that allow each student to engage on the level they are working at. Tutorial is offered twice per week. Join us for either day or both. You will get a different experience on each day.
