Great quote from our old friend and former NCFL colleague Tony Peyton in this article:

"We know there's a correlation of educational attainment of parents with the educational attainment of their children," said Tony Peyton, a program officer with the nonprofit C.E. and S. Foundation and former member of the GED Testing Service's advisory board. "If you want to invest in good early childhood programs, invest in adult education."

Happy Holidays,
