01. Parents Know Best

We invite parents to research curriculum and learning resources to determine what’s best for each child, based on their unique needs and interests, and then submit a proposed year-long personalized education plan for review and approval.

02. Students Thrive

Once students experience a truly personalized learning environment, they never want to go back to a one-size-fits-all approach.

03. Success Continues

We hear amazing stories from parents whose children have continued their success as adults.

My 7-year old son has loved using the snap circuit kit. Before we started the class I was worried that it would be over his head and I would be helping a lot with the projects. However, he really wanted to do it, so we went ahead with asking for the course. He has been able to build everything independently, and all I have had to do is help explain how things work to him. Was a great way to learn about complex electrical concepts on a fun non-threatening way. It was great for him to learn the function and vocabulary of things like capacitors, resistors, etc. He loved it.” Happy Parent

My younger children (11 yr) and (8 yr) have loved learning electronics this year with the snap links kit – they have graduated to taking apart thrift store finds to figure out how they work.” Parent

My 8-year old son loved his snap circuit tech class.” Happy Parent
