OUR MISSION

We provide children with educational experiences designed to extend academic achievement beyond national, state and community norms. Education Soaring expands children's interests and knowledge, increases confidence and self-esteem, and promotes independence.

We connect parents to resources that meet their children's immediate and long-term educational needs at school, at home and in the community. We help parents make the intricate and crucial decisions necessary to place their children on the best educational paths.

We share current research and developments in education so that teachers can address children's needs using the most advanced educational tools and support systems.

OUR INSTRUCTIONAL VISION

Education Soaring classes offer private school benefits at affordable costs. Class size does not usually exceed ten students and is sometimes as low as four or five students. Small classes ensure that all students have multiple opportunities to use materials and interact directly with instructors.

Acceleration is provided through course content that sometimes stretches two to six years beyond grade level resulting in classes that ideal for exceptionally gifted children. Course topics are selected for their relevancy and interesting content and are continually molded to fit the needs of students. Maximum time is devoted to discussion, reflection, and collaboration. Emphasis is placed on conceptual learning, hands-on activities, and exploration.

Experienced, dedicated teachers bring a love of teaching and learning, superior knowledge, and passionate interests to their courses. Education Soaring teachers become advocates for students they come to know well over time.

Students meet and interact with other children with whom they share similar interests and knowledge. Friendships develop and are maintained over time.

Parents meet and support other parents who face similar parenting challenges. Valuable information regarding resources is exchanged.
