Our Programs

Our program objectives are connected to local and national academic standards, including the Common Core State Standards. Each series consists of content which can be customized for specific grade levels. In addition to academic standards, our programs and learning objectives are linked to competencies which have been validated as “critical” by employers through comprehensive research. Our approach allows students to develop and model desirable habits throughout their social and organizational experiences at school.
