It's interesting that you mention the hybrid model and NCLB, as those have been areas where PrepMe has had some great initial success. We have a number of schools that have integrated our program into their school day and the teacher switches into a facilitator role, floating around the classroom and working with students 1 on 1. This has worked remarkably well for many charter schools who have had large school wide improvements in test scores. What's as important is that they have students who develop a work ethic and get a solid educational foundation in high school who can now go to college. It's a pretty remarkable transformation to happen in the course of a few short years. If you'd like to talk some more about what we're up to and how we work with schools, feel free to email me. I've put it in the email part of the comment field. Best, Avichal -- CTO & Co-Founder PrepMe www.prepme.com Hi Paul,
