Testimonials
I had the honor of coordinating three Big Rig visits to Fort Myers Middle Academy, and they were truly amazing visits.

I checked in with a lot of students today about their Big Rig experience and they loved it. Also, I lost count of the number of students who came up to me in the hallways, after school, and other times of day to show me their books. You have truly fueled their passion for reading!
