WE BELIEVE…...in individualized learning through mass customization instead of mass production of education....in decades of scientific research regarding how brains really work and how learning happens....that Big Ideas + Consecutive Down Payments + Practice = Mastery....that mastery of concepts and skills should be for all kinds of children—not just the "best and brightest."...in giving parents meaningful ways to be involved in their children's education if they choose....in being directly accountable and responsive to all of our customers....in outstanding teacher engagement....in rich, engaging content that gets kids into learning so learning gets into them....that profitability yields invention, responsiveness, and responsibility....in using 21st-century tools to prepare 21st-century students....in books, digital media, and dirt—because a mix of teaching tools maximizes learning....that children should be introduced to humankind's legacies which create our common culture as humans.... that raw, unyielding passion is our most important quality.
