Johnson, principal at Billingsville Leadership Academy, praised Hearts success in helping teachers fill the gaps in math education and lauded the impact of relationships with tutors has had on Billingsvilles young leaders. It is a legacy that is ongoing. Our students now know what it means to have someone come in just for them and serves as their personal cheerleader, Johnson said.
