Before SEEDS entered my children’s lives, they attended a school that, while limited in resources, prepared them enough to be able to handle SEEDS’ very rigorous programs.

At that time, another parent I knew was in the middle of enrolling her daughter into a SEEDS program, and the concept was intriguing. SEEDS presented additional educational opportunities that I did not know existed, and it was important to me that my children learn and benefit from such opportunities. I wanted them to be academically challenged, more than what they were experiencing in public school, and SEEDS was the best way to do that.

Luckily, both of my daughters were able to participate in SEEDS, and from that point on, their educational opportunities expanded. SEEDS provided them exposure to new levels of education, with abundant resources. Even at their young ages, they were able to build a network of support that helped guide them every step of the way, from learning about and applying to independent schools, to preparing for and participating in admissions interviews.

Because of SEEDS, my daughters, today, have more opportunities and more options. Other parents and families need to know that SEEDS works. They provide the tools and resources necessary to prepare and introduce your children to exciting new challenges, whether educational, professional, or personal.
