WHAT THEY'RE SAYING . . .
“So, my youngest daughter Kailee was really struggling with reading. She needed to be at 173 by the end of the school year. At the time she was at a 70…!!! Well, Kailee was retested yesterday, and her reading score was 178! I couldn’t be happier. She worked so hard and she did it. Thank you FSD!”
