Our Vision

CORE VALUES
Empathy. Empowerment. Education.
Before children find success, they must utilize the power of education. Before children can focus on education, they must build hope, dignity and strength within themselves. Before children can feel empowered, they must be seen, heard and understood. This is the promise of the Fostering Leadership Academy. At the Fostering Leadership Academy K-8 education center, students will receive individualized curriculum through trauma-informed education practices.
-
Experiential Learning
We help children connect with their surroundings in new ways, so they discover what is meaningful to them in the moment and in the future.
-
Community
A child’s educational success in large part depends on families, educators, peers and relevant members of the community.
-
Collaboration
Sharing new experiences and solving problems with others leads to a greater sense of connectedness – as well as meaningful learning experiences.
-
Proven Models
Several important learning models have been developed by educators around the world. The human connection must be a key component of learning.
