I Can't Believe She Scored In The 90th Percentile...and More JATP news!

Recently, one of my clients called me telling me about what has been happening in her life. Some good news, and some bad news. We had discussed private school options in Atlanta and had talked in great detail about her child who I have always said, "Raises my self-esteem when she walks in the room." This child is so amazing that I have asked that when they become of age - to run for political office.

As the conversation started to dwindle, my client told me that she had gone ahead and scheduled the JATP test. I was driving at that time and was hoping that the news would not be too disturbing because I was afraid that I would start tearing up (if the news was bad). She then told me a set of numbers that I was completely enthralled by... "It's in the 90's - but I don't know what that means!". I told her that it means that all of your hard work has paid off - and it is time to celebrate!

As a provider of Early Childhood Development Programs, I was very happy to know that this young child is well-prepared for the challenging education that lies ahead. I hope to make a difference in the lives of more children in the years to come!
