I agree with the April 29 editorial supporting the D.C. Opportunity Scholarship Program. I don't know what I would do without the program. I am a single mother on a fixed income, but most important, I am the proud mother of 9-year-old Breanna, who has a D.C. Opportunity Scholarship.
Four years ago, when Breanna was starting kindergarten, I did not know where I would send her to school. What I did know was that the two schools in my neighborhood were in serious need of improvements, both academically and physically.
Today Breanna is at Holy Comforter-St. Cyprian school, right in our own neighborhood, and has made the honor roll for three semesters. I thank our local leaders who are working to improve education. This program makes a difference, and I am grateful that Breanna is receiving the high-quality education she deserves.
