American students are competing GLOBALLY in the job market. Our traditional school year of 175 days is not enough to keep up with foreign students who are in school for upwards of 200 to 220 days, PLUS the extra tutorial services that they receive. South Korea recently had to ban tutorial services from operating after 10 pm. DO YOU EMPLOY TUTORIAL SERVICES TO ASSIST YOUR STUDENT? If we want to see our graduation rate increase, we have to get out of the mindset that the FREE education is good enough. We must be willing to INVEST our our children's future. 

According to educational statistics:

* 1,000,000 million students will dropout this year.

* every 26 seconds, a student decides to dropout.

*the national graduation rate is approximately 70% and about 55% for african-americans.

Solicit a tutorial service, as there a several out there. Your child's future may hinge on it!
