Youth Programs
The curriculum is built on a nationally-recognized teaching and learning Approach developed by founder and former school-teacher, Judy Patterson. The Approach begins with a positive attitude towards learning. Patterson, with a career that spans over 30 years in education, developed the Imagine Tomorrow Approach to help children exceed expectations, and reach their full potential. Patterson believes that every aspect of the program must be infused with the Imagine Tomorrow Approach so that children are constantly met with encouragement and success. Patterson proudly states, Its so simple, yet its so powerful. We build confidence and leadership in our students by focusing on their success. The Imagine Tomorrow Approach is a unique recipe that leads to success in every child. Everything that is developed and delivered has consistent elements: children are treated with respect, expected to deliver to high expectations, and opportunities are constantly created to lead a child to success, then celebrate the satisfaction of achievement. We teach children what it feels like to be successful, a feeling that they love to get, again and again. We have always said, people sign up for computer classes, but our families stay with our program for years because of the feeling their children get inside when they experience Imagine.
