Schools & Educational Organizations:

Many high schools and educational organizations focus on academics, tutoring, and other support services that ensure that a student performs as well as possible academically. Guidance counselors, teachers, administration staff are often overburdened with excessive caseloads of students and aren’t able to provide the personal guidance students need. Their time is restricted to scheduling and basic admissions paperwork.  Many are also burdened with the role of helping students with social and emotional issues, which, while very important, leaves them little time for more in-depth guidance about college admissions, majors, career guidance, and other crucial aspects of a student’s future.  There is also little time for other enjoyable and enriching activities like creative ventures, which are often the first to be eliminated from the budget.

We are able to visit your high school or educational organization in person or through webinars and offer workshops, training, information sessions, and curriculum for both staff and students on the similar topics for which we coach individual students, but geared specifically to schools and classrooms.  We conveniently offer a ready-made career exploration curriculum anchored around purpose development, called Head & Heart Life.   For those looking to learn a English or Spanish as a New Language, we also offer Artsy English and/or Artsy Español, unique enrichment programs designed to develop school-aged students’ life and social-emotional skills through the mediums of internationally-minded English or Spanish Language and Creative Arts activities (see below for more info).

Aside from schools, we offer our services at other venues geared toward youth development such as libraries, community education programs, nonprofit organizations, community centers, YMCA and other childcare programs, Girls & Boy Scouts, etc.  Teachers are also welcome to take advantage of our services on an individual basis.
