I somehow find this hard to believe.
Mrs M says
I somehow find it hard to believe you believe there are AV kids that are college bound. Our student is on that list. These students have hopes and dreams. Kudos to them all.
Mrs M says
Sorry, meant to say it’s hard to believe you don’t believe AV kids are college bound.
YAY!! says
@Not available: bitter much?
Congrats to all honorees, one day you will be the boss of @Not available or his/her clan and you can fire him/her or them on the spot. Keep up the great work!
