Project Description
We are using a Hybrid learning model, to give EVERY student access to affordable excellence in education and connecting students from domestic and international classrooms!
Launching the FIRST Fully developed Virtual and On-site, Early childhood- School age Development center Franchise!
Students engaging in art projects with new virtual friends, and tailored to support siblings of various ages as well!
The only school of its kind, developed from the ground up, to integrate the recent technological advances from the pandemic, with the traditional elements of a well-rounded and hands-on S.T.E.A.M. directed Curriculum.
This academy seeks to enrich traditional methods of teaching in the classroom, with a virtual window to connect students and teachers from all over the world. We are utilizing International access, to bridge educational gaps between communities, and create a lasting impact through learning experiences.
I am seeking funding to Secure the land for the Pilot center, and staff the Construction Engineering team that will break ground on the very first campus of this franchise!
On my team are financial advisors, graphics/advertising designers, Venture capitalists, Veteran education consultants, grant writers and Child pyschologists.
Thank you, to my mentors, who have supported my progress into this field for the past
We encourage all our staff to teach what they love and are passionate about, so we can share that passion for learning with our students! Our teachers are hired only with a Bachelors in the field and above. We also strive to set the standard for teaching wages. We pay staff what they deserve; not just what is competitive by comparison.
thirteen years, and thank you to all of my backers for their confidence and abundance of knowledge! I am pleased to work with you as we transition into the next phase of modern education!
