(K-5th grade)
Elementary programs allow our youngest learners to gain vocabulary to discuss work and careers, financial literacy, and entrepreneurship. They also use the concepts to better understand grade level social studies objectives.
(6th-8th grade)
Middle school programs expand upon students understandings of themselves and the world around them. Students focus on one pathway in each of our three core middle school programs, allowing them to hone in on skills and activities designed for them.
(9th grade-age 25)
Students learn targeted skills that prepare them for adulthood. Semester-long programs allow students to explore concepts deeply, while shorter programs allow them to access programs in tandem with their teacher's curriculum.
