What an amazing day we had last Saturday with the Washington Redskins Demetric Evans. Not only did Ashley Tutors and Demetric tackle education together at two Tree Top Kids locations and the JCC in Rockville, we also formed a team to help Demetric’s charity with the hard work of our students. Basically, for every ‘A’ or ‘O’ that our students earn this marking period, Ashely Tutors will donate a specific amount of money to Demetric’s charity 92 Blessings. Our students, their families and new fans of Ashley Tutors got to meet Demetric, and they also got to meet our math tutor Joe, our chemistry tutor Jackie and are “jack-of-all-trades” Vanessa. Below is a wrap up of the day — but the picture says it all. Finally, a big thanks to Demetric — a big man who is big on education!
