How It Works

Our STEM and Soccer Programs are developed and tailored for each district and school, but our methodology and results are consistent.

Directors of School Partnerships work with each client to create a program tailored to your school’s values and desired outcomes. Our Directors of School Partnerships will set up a program that exceeds expectations and ensures a smooth partnership process that is responsive to your needs and those of your staff and parent bodies.

Discovery

Organization

Implementation

Assessment

Step 1 –
Discovery:
Our Regional Manager will sit down with each Principal to review school values, identify specific goals and needs, and outline organizational details.

Step 2 –
Organization:
The Principal identifies which students will participate on each given day.

Step 3 –
Implementation:
Based on the identified goals and values, grade levels, and age ranges, our coaches recommend appropriate games and activities. From there, we arrive early, meet staff and sign in at the front office, and handle setup. Then the fun and learning begins.

“We had very consistent coaches who really monitored the student activities. We also appreciated you overseeing the program so we didn’t have to do it.”
