As the 2021-2022 school year starts, we want to take a moment to recognize our recent graduates and #inspire students to achieve their #BestOfAll this year. We are so proud of our friend Joe and other Class of 2021 graduates! Joe was able to benefit from GiGi’s At Home virtual literacy and math tutoring this past session and has done an amazing job! Congratulations, Joe!

Joe’s mom shared her appreciation with the following:

“Thank you ALL for how much you have helped Joe his junior and senior years during the pandemic!!!! We are so grateful and amazed at how Joe met your high expectations online with math and reading!!!! We look forward to a close online relationship in Joe’s future!!! THANK YOU again and again!!!”

You can watch Joe’s Graduation Speech and celebrate right from your own home!
