When we originally applied, we simply provided supplemental support services to homeschooling families. Now, we are growing into an education network that provides community, coaching, and curriculum nationwide.

and I couldn't be more grateful for what it's done for us, and helping us serve more students and families.

It has helped me raise the ceiling on what’s possible.

The Yass Prize has empowered our youth, families and community by bringing great visibility to our efforts.

going against the common core and focusing on what we know is important for kids really works, and having a network of people now that also agree was super huge.

from all different demographics, all different states, all different service provider types that you can learn from.

It's actually mind blowing. I really see myself as an education entrepreneur, but this expanded me.

The Yass experience has given us “permission” to do exactly that.

in innovators who are doing this type of transformational work, so that others can learn from it and replicate it, so that you can actually grow yourselves.

Not only because of the capital, but because of the knowledge that comes by communing with the diverse group of people as opposed to everybody that thinks the exact same way that you might think.

focusing on what we know is important for kids really works, and having a network of people now that also agree was super huge.

We don’t want you to rinse, wash, repeat. We want you to build and sustain.
