Our Mission
Our mission is to create an environment that promotes educational achievement, encourages goal setting, teaches teamwork skills, and builds self-esteem in individuals of all ages. We provide unique, hands-on, authentic learning experiences and positive role models.
All of our programs, classes, and experiences are based on five core values:
All of our programs, classes, and experiences are based on five core values:
BELONGING
"Those who have a strong sense of love and belonging have the courage to be imperfect." -Brené Brown Students will find acceptance among new teams and friends. Everyone deserves to belong, and everyone is welcome here. |
CURIOSITY
Curiosity is one of the permanent and certain characteristics of a vigorous intellect." -Samuel Johnson Curiosity fuels discovery. Students will discover the natural curiosity within themselves. They will develop an innate desire to question, explore and propel themselves forward on a path to success. |
LEADERSHIP
"Before you are a leader, success is all about growing yourself. When you become a leader, success is all about growing others." -Jack Welch Students of all ages will have the opportunity to discover their own power to effectively lead. Students will learn when to step forward and when to step back; when to listen and when to be heard; how to speak up and how to hear others' ideas. |
PASSION
"When people call people nerds, mostly what they're saying is 'you like stuff.' Which is just not a good insult at all. Like, 'you are too enthusiastic about the miracle of human consciousness.'" -John Green Students will be encouraged to find their passion, embrace it, and pursue it whole-heartedly. |
TEAMWORK
"If everyone is moving forward together, then success takes care of itself." -Henry Ford Students will learn skills to improve communication, conflict management, and problem solving as they work and grow together in teams. |
