Mom gets special tutoring—from her daughters

Whenever 41-year-old Liana Crowe struggled with her English homework in pursuit of her high school diploma, she could count on a convenient tutor—her 17-year-old daughter. "English is my favourite subject," beamed Megan Crowe, who along with sisters Natalie, 16, and Sarah, 14, proudly attended the graduation ceremony Wednesday, June 6, for their mom and 124 other adult students of St. Michael's Catholic high school at the Fogolar Furlan Club. For Liana, her graduation was sweetened with the knowledge that two of her three daughters will be joining her as graduates later this month—Megan finishing Grade 12 at Cardinal Carter and Sarah finishing Grade 8 at Ecole Ste. Ursule. Read their inspirational story.
