Working with Dr. Bill Daggett

“We’re losing too many students

from our schools and we know one

thing for sure – putting at-risk kids

back into the same curriculum, the

same learning methodology, and

the same environment will notwork. This is where alternatives

like Penn Foster can help.” – Bill
