14-yr old finishes high school and college on the same day

14-yr old finishes high school and college on the same day On May 10, 14-year-old Matthew McKenzie simultaneously achieved two of life's biggest milestones when he earned both his high school diploma and associate's degree on the same day.


"I graduated from Chattahoochee Tech with my degree in Interdisciplinary Studies and later that night got my diploma from high school," Fox 5 Atlanta reports McKenzie saying.

Homeschooled since the second grade, the Georgia teen started taking high school classes at age 8, and by 11, started a dual enrollment program at Chattahoochee Technical College. His mother, Monique McCord, decided to homeschool her son after school officials refused to allow him to advance to a higher grade.

"Educationally, he's always been ahead," McCord told the Atlanta Journal Constitution. "I felt like it would be a disservice to stop him."
