I, too, doubt she is worried about the scholarship funds. I would think that a family with this type of work ethic is more concerned about the honor and fairness of the situation.
Oh, no doubt! Especially since she had been told specifically by the counselor that finishing high school in three years wouldn't be a problem. I'm sure that she and her parents feel a keen sense of betrayal, even if it wasn't intentional on the part of the counselor.
