The Leaf Academy Story
Leaf Academy's mission is to build education programs that teach people how to follow their dreams in the 21st century. That's not an easy mission to follow and that's because there are a lot forces working against Leaf Academy.
For instance, the K12 system would rather spend time teaching kids how to read Shakespeare than how to be a leader in society. But the school system isn't the only force working against Leaf Academy.
Then there's the collegiate network that would rather overcharge students for classes on how to write a college term paper instead of teaching them 21st century communications skills.
And if you didn't think this mountain was high enough to climb, there's also our elected officials who only get votes if they "act" like they are doing something, but in reality don't do anything.
This is the world we live in. This is reality.
That's why Leaf Academy founder D.Scott Schwartz, M.Ed, otherwise known as "The School Doc" decided to launch this venture. Leaf Academy is the first online 21st century school in the world. And the problem is most people don't even know what that means.
And for good reason. You've never seen a 21st century school before. In fact, you've never seen a 21st century organization before.
So that's why Leaf Academy is here.
What we aim to do is develop and build education programs that help people overcome the old education they received in school, and make overpriced college degrees obsolete. Leaf Academy thinks you deserve to be able to put all the puzzle pieces together so you can live your dreams.
And the only reason this sounds "too good to be true," is simply because you've been promised the moon before and been let down by the people who made those promises. But Leaf Academy isn't going to do that to you.
The truth is we are not making promises we can't deliver.
The key to success in the 21st century is knowing 8 essential skills. And to be fair, the school system taught you the first three skills on that list.
Therefore, all you need to do is learn the other five skills on the list. That's why "The School Doc" wrote a groundbreaking book that shows people how they can transform their schools into 21st century learning environments.
