Review for All Kinds of Minds, Durham, NC, USA
All Kinds of Minds is a fantastic organization run by wonderful and caring people. My School, Wasatch Academy partnered with AKOM nearly ten years ago and has never looked back. We saw positive impact on our students' achievement and overall happiness in school. Based on these early successes, Wasatch Academy committed to training all of its teachers, dorm parents and administrators. We have used the AKOM framework to inspire programs and services at the individual student, Whole class, and school-wide levels. Teachers are trained and expected to intervene within their own fields of expertise as well as support the interventions of colleagues teaching other classes. In an age where many private schools are struggling, Wasatch Academy is thriving and expanding. With students from 33 countries and 22 states, representing a wide variety of learning styles and strengths, we are proud to say that when it comes to walking the walk, Wasatch Academy really does... We teach all kinds of minds. And we reach them too! Thanks to AKOM for their dedication to developing quality programming for educators!
