“I believe that we instill in each child that comes here the desire to go to college,” Sandy said. “I know kids who never dreamed of going to school, but they’re now attending prestigious universities throughout the nation, studying to be doctors, teachers, lawyers, engineers. We — I believe — here at the Tiger Woods Learning Center, expose kids to possibilities that they never knew existed, certainly not for them. We really help create a brighter future for kids. I think Anaheim has a new happiest place on Earth.”
