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.

The Yass Prize is almost like Burning Man for education reform.

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.

It’s thanks to organizations like the Yass Prize that our children are going to have a better tomorrow.

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

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

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

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

The funding is not following children. We're trying to make better options for kids, for poor kids, middle class kids. Wealthy people have this choice, they opt out of their systems easily, why shouldn't all children have that choice?

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

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

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