That is our key to our success.

And the reason why 99% of our kids graduate is because it's a three-way partnership, but it's also parents who have skin in the game.

They may be poor, but they care desperately about their kids.

And not only do they want them in the right environment, they also, they sacrifice greatly by putting money into their education.

And that's really a remarkable thing.

It is a night and day difference.

It's considerably higher.

But I think what we like to focus on, because there's so much graduation and grade inflation these days, we see in our school system, we focus more on the proficiency of our kids.

And we see that our kids in math and reading are about three to four times stronger in math and reading.

So we know they actually are getting the basic foundational blocks they need to actually graduate and go to college.

Most of our kids go to college.

Most will graduate from college as well, which is incredible.

Now they can actually own a home like you just mentioned, because now they're securing a job, they're making money, or they go to trades in the military, which I think is also a wonderful thing where they can do what they need to in their lives.

Absolutely.

We're so excited.

This is a monumental moment in our country, which will be transformational.

For decades, we've had state tax credits and voucher programs.

And as you referenced there, it's only been a statewide issue.

But there's been a longtime dream about what can we do federally to make sure that children in all 50 states have access.

And it's been a dream, but really the trifecta happened with a president and a Congress and a Senate that believed in doing something.
