Explaining the steps on applying for scholarships was absolutely amazing! I learned that you don't have to wait until senior year to apply for scholarships, you can start applying in the 8th grade!! Brown, KenDarius
Going into the seminar I expected surface level information, but instead I was given an immense amount of important information that will greatly help my chances in getting a scholarship. Tovar, Melvin

I’d like to give a heartfelt commendation to the leader of Rising South Literacy School, Dr. Dedra Muhammad. Her efforts in our community have been far reaching and long lasting. Since 2009 I’ve had the blessing of being a part of the movement she started to inform, ignite, empower and enthuse our people. Dedra you have done more for me in a positive way than most others outside of my own family and I am eternally grateful for your instruction, insight and patience throughout these many years
God bless you, your husband and the entire family
