A 501c3 Proudly Helping Youth and Teens Succeed Since 1978
They Came To Us As They Were - And Left As More.
The Learnatory, a STEAM and educational consulting organization, has been a key catalyst in promoting STEAM and skill acquisition by elementary and high school students since 1978 allowing us to help close digital knowledge gaps and inspire new ways of learning, innovation, and different ways of thinking. We are proud of the progress The Learnatory has made and the influence we have had in the field of STEAM education, and we believe students throughout the country have benefited from our services.
After analysis of the impact of COVID and careful consideration, we have decided to operate The Learnatory until June 30, 2022, after which our services will no longer be available. It has been an amazing life experience to work with tens of thousands of students, parents, teachers, and schools during this journey. We are eternally grateful.
You may get in touch with us at thelearnatory333@gmail.com if you have any questions.
We Enhanced Self-Awareness and Self-Management Skills
SOCIAL EMOTIONAL LEARNING’S FIVE CORE COMPETENCIES
For simplicity and clarity, our programs are based upon the set of five competencies identified by the Collaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning (CASEL) that all young people and adults need to learn to be successful in school and life. This framework has been widely accepted across the country.
Cognitive and character skills work together as dynamic complements; they are inseparable. Skills beget skills. More motivated children learn more. Those who are more informed usually make wiser decisions. We aim to make students aware of their potential and help them tap into their inner strengths.
We Built Interpersonal Skills for Healthier Relationships
We know that self-control, openness, the ability to engage with others, to plan, and to persist are the attributes that get people in the door and on the job, and lead to productive lives.
We offer initiatives to encourage and support the development of learning environments that are emotionally and physically healthy. This includes peer-to-peer interactions and collaborations to grow teamwork and relationship-building skills.
We Taught Ethical Decision-Making Skills And Behaviors
We help students learn to practice ethical decision-making skills and demonstrate responsible behaviors in personal, school, and community contexts. Our trained coaches are positive, enthusiastic, supportive communicators who offer trusting, focused, goal-oriented counseling.
We give students something to look forward to by helping them find the desire, tools, and grit to turn their dreams into realities.
