k12 PARENTS: ASK YOurselves if this descriBes you:

A Personal Education and Development Record

I would like to establish a secure, online education record and plan for my child. Perhaps it could connect to the school’s SMS (Student Management System) and integrate with school messaging and online learning platforms, but mostly it would contain a true Adaptive Learning Plan, and include responses to developmental intake surveys (from the pediatrician’s office, plus academic and other assessments. i could then share it with new teachers, a school counselor, as well as other professionals. The app would store records and information, and keep us on track as they progress through school and prepare for college and/or career.

An EdTECH APP Actually Designed for Families

i would like an app that would centralize information about my child's learning and development, include relevant health factors, and help my family get more organized towards preparing my children for their futures. I think it would help me contribute as a parent in helpful, meaningful ways; be actively aware of and reinforce teacher goals and collaborate to manage and monitor my child's overall development, learning gaps, and challenges.

A Credentialed, Dedicated, Family Education Advisor

I think it would be invaluable to establish a long-term relationship with a credentialed educator who knew my family, my child’s learning profile and history, could provide additional insight if we are facing learning or behavioral challenges, and perhaps help me choose the right schools, etc. It would be ideal if this educator was free of any conflicts-of-interest and incentivized to help my kids achieve success.

No-Contract Tutoring from academic mentors

For those times my child does need K12 Tutoring, On-Demand Homework Help or other academic support, I would like to be able to connect to someone who already knows my family, my child's history and academic strengths and struggles and won't pressure me into signing up for something we don't need. If my child's Tutor could also be a Mentor, matched for a common interest in a sport, extracurricular art or interest, I know my child woud respond better.
