Car Insurance

I'm posting this to the list because it may be of help to some of you.
Our car insurance policy recently renewed (USAA) and in reviewing the
new policy, I realized that I had not applied for the "Good Student
Discount" for our 16-year old (the last child living at home who is on
our policy; we've "graduated" the other two! Yippee!). She is considered
an "occasional driver." Since we are going to be unschooling beginning
this fall (she's been in public school prior to this), I wondered how
our car insurer would handle the "Good Student Discount" for a
homeschooler.
I called USAA and they said they are happy to provide "Good Student
Discounts" to homeschooled children. All I need to do is fill out the
normal required form and mail it in. They said that after the "school
year," they "may" ask for grades. I said that would be fine.
You might want to look at your automobile insurance policy and inquire
as to the same. I appreciate those companies who recognize homeschoolers
as being eligible for a "Good Student Discount."

P.S. There is also a "Driver's Education" discount available on our
policy. I wonder if they would allow that discount should her dad or I
"teach" her driver's ed. I'll have to check that out.
