Diana! That is such a great idea - of course you could!!! I understand about living in a small town - I did too! I did not even have the opportunity to take geometry in high school, so when I went to take the ACT (equivalent of the SAT test for college), I had a miserable score on the math portion because I didn't know geometry!!! There are many many wonderful things about living in a small town and I wouldn't trade that experience for anything, but there are disadvantages. You can certainly create a wonderful learning environment for Karlie!!!
