"When I was about to enter high school, I realized that I had little direction and that school alone wouldn’t be enough to reach my highest potential. I met with Mr. Coakley at ACS and immediately had faith that he could help me not only achieve my goals but also uncover what potential goals might be. I believe ACS is the reason I attended a top ten university and also earn a four-year military scholarship. Thank you, Mr. Coakley for all you have done for me. I will always remember your intellectual guidance, dedication to helping me succeed, and genuine concern for my future."
