Must be different state by state then. Where I live, you have to pass the Algebra Exit exam to graduate (which I did last year.)
Yeah, where I live, homeschoolers don’t have to turn in monthly papers, or give the state upsates. But I’m pretty sure all states require GED tests

On Counterfeit Island, the Inspector’s house has Black Widow written across the front sign… In French that is 😆 Veuve-Noire = Black Widow
Nameless UnDEFiNed
Veuve = Window. Noire = black
“Noir” is black, but “Veuve” is widow. Window is “fenêtre.” I speak french. 😉
Oh, sorry I got that info from another blogger. Bad translation 😆 😛
No, you’re right. FF is wrong.

You said that veuve =wiNdow, with an N. Veuve means widow, with no N. Not that it really matters. 😉

The porter in Mystery Train is you.
Isn’t that stated by one of the characters on the island? Or the fact that the two of you look very similar?
It isn’t said outright on the island, but most of the MT island guides mention it.
