Yes, I should have mentioned that as well. I did know that we had training available via MeL, but didn't think of it when I decided to forward the information.

Khan Academy is partnering with the College Board to provide free test prep resources for the SAT. Also in the story was a partnership with Boys and Girls Clubs to provide safe places with internet access for kids to use the tools.
