Did you know that Forty-one percent of four-year college students did not graduate within six years?

Students don’t take advantage of the opportunities they are provided in high school, like dual-enrollment, that could save them time and money in college.
One of my favorite memories growing up is how much time I spent reading. Whenever I got a new book I couldn 't put it down. I remember that I would always read on the bus ride home.
