Our Philosophy

We believe parents are critically important in their children’s education – by laying the ground work for formal education during preschool years, then by augmenting and reinforcing classroom teaching and making connections between school and “real life” skills.  We strive to empower parents to engage in their children’s learning – through many stages and despite busy schedules.

SOAR Student Online Achievement Resources

Making Sense Online seeks to empower parents to engage in their children’s learning.  We provide research-based resources (videos, activities, links, and references) that support military parents (and all parents) as they help their children make sense of mathematics and literacy.  These resources empower parents with:

  • Strategies to optimize time spent helping children outside the classroom
  • Confidence to have conversations about mathematics and literacy
  • Ideas to stimulate conversations and to connect concepts to life skills
  • Opportunities to have positive effect on student achievement
