Congratulations to Tymlee Taffner! 🎊🎉
He recently earned his high school equivalency certificate through HiSET testing. Tymlee was very motivated and completed testing in about three months. He balanced working along with studying and testing. He was able to succeed with high scores on each section of the test. Tymlee plans to keep working and is excited that he will now be eligible for more positions and better pay. We are so proud of him and wish him the best! 👏👏👏
