Be a School's Cool Leader

You’ll learn the way to teach the School’s Cool program – by having fun, interacting and being successful. The training is extremely effective, whether you choose to run a School’s Cool program, or just put the skills you’ve learned into other areas of your life, or with your own children.

The 72 hours of curriculum is based on a proprietary Developmental Checklist which shows exactly what skills each child has upon entry to the program, provides a road map for building on each skill needed for school, and allows you to measure the increases in skill development over the course of the program.

All activities are fun, play-based and interactive. The program is appropriate and effective for all children going into Kindergarten, for children who haven’t done well in Kindergarten and need a boost, and for children who have English as a second language, or have other special challenges. Children who experience School’s Cool stay in school longer, do better and enjoy the school experience. They become excited to go to the program, engage with their peers and are proud of their accomplishments. School’s Cool really makes a difference!
