Thank you for your feedback. I'm happy you believe we have an amazing tool and selling is fun, but concerned you gave us such a low rating overall. As the K12 sales leader, I’d like to understand more about your belief we only focus on Higher Ed. We have an awesome K-12 sales team, amazing products and lots of opportunity in this market. I’m really excited about the focus we have on products that enhance and grow our existing offerings to middle and high school students. I encourage you to reach out to me or anyone on the people team as we would appreciate the opportunity to hear how we can do better as we continue to support the K12 market. - Steph Gladfelter, Senior Director K12 Sales
