How is your business helping to solve the health, social, or economic challenges created by COVID19?
We are responding to the need for academic decentralization brought on by social distancing and school closures. Our program includes assessment tools and advising to set up each child for success. The program components are designed for ADHD, dyslexic, mild autism, and other learning differences, making them extremely effective for mainstream students as well. The program empowers students (and parents) to create, innovate, lead, and create a future with choices.
