President Barack Obama to Mentor Two Anacostia Students

You ever notice how in bad news reports the headlines always say "Southeast" or "Anacostia" but in positive news reports it becomes "D.C."?

Just saying. :)

Go HERE to read the full article by NBC Washington.

Excerpt:

Two students from Academies at Anacostia, a public charter school in D.C., will have the honor of being mentored by none other than President Barack Obama. 
Juniors Alonzo Tabron and Malcolm Ware were chosen because they showed a marked improvement, both academically and behaviorally, over the past two years despite challenging home circumstances, a school spokesperson said. The president will mentor them until they graduate from high school.
