What makes us different?
Our Staff - Industry professionals, compensated $18-$20 per hour based on their work history. All instructors are background checked and must have a minimum of 2 years' experience working with kids in a structured setting. We recruit teachers, coaches, and other youth industry professionals, with a passion for making your child's experience amazing.
The Structure - We establish clear expectations right from the start, treat everyone with respect, seamlessly integrate participant feedback into our activities, and encourage all Cadets to learn and grow from their experiences, both positive and challenging. Our focus is on how we collaborate rather than just individual accomplishments.
Benefits - We are dedicated to fostering 'Upward Spirals' in Cadets. By participating in our sessions, participants are able to cultivate confidence, self-esteem, and a host of other positive attributes that create a ripple effect. These personal developments not only enhance the overall experience, but also can serve as a contributing factor to better grades in school, improved problem-solving skills, and a foundation for lifelong success.
