This is the college acceptance season -- frequently a nervous time for high school seniors. But D.C.'s Avery Coffey can relax. He applied to five Ivy League universities and all five accepted him.

Great story and it sounds like an impressive school he went to, in my mind it shows what is possible when kids are placed in constructive environments and they apply themselves.

What's even funnier is he's a product of a single mother. Seems like anything is possible.

Amen but lets keep in mind Possible is not the same thing as probable.

When someone beats the odds we should not use the occasion to suggest the odds are not real.

Again, congrats to the young man.
