And her story is full of numbers. Alisa learned how to read at just two-years-old. At five she began doing algebra problems. Then at 8, she started taking classes at California's Crafton Hills College. Now, two-years later, at 10 years old, she's set to graduate. Alisa says she loves math and finds complex equations fun.

Students in Allentown got a visit from a Guinness World Record breaking pilot. We got to see how his program is hoping to take their learning to new heights. Captain Barrington Irving was in town. Back in 2007, at the age of just 23 years old, he went on a 97-day journey, and flew 30,000 miles around the world, by himself. He was the youngest and also the first Black man to do it.
