LAC is proud to be expanding our suite of services, now acting as an academic asset for relocation! We are working to plug what we see as a massive hole in the industry.
When families move, or are relocated for work, the education of the little ones should be paramount. Our team is there to help parents understand schools, make sense of options and help the student (and families) optimize their process in finding the right fit. We're there every step of the way, bringing comfort and happiness to an otherwise chaotic time.
LAC works with students and their families across the country to find their school of best fit, so that they can optimize their experience and goals. Our work is geared towards their version of success in the future -- academically, athletically, and socially.
We started in 2013 by helping high school students find their college of best fit, then we helped place high schoolers and now we've started working to help families understand - and be successful - with placements K through college. Our team has worked in over 30 states and have dealt with all school types (public, private, independent, boarding) as well as all different types of learners and ability levels.
When working with families that are relocating, the schools and education systems are often top-of-mind – the family may know the job they’ve accepted or been placed in or have an understanding of the neighborhood they are moving to, but they want to know everything they can about the school where their child will be. They take comfort in knowing that their daughter or son will be comfortable.
LAC knows that this is the cornerstone of the family’s transition into their new community. We take the time and effort to make sure that a student is placed in the ideal school, reviewing all options available, discussing and communicating with administrators and admissions teams.
We conduct a needs analysis for the student and family and, if possible, we look engage with them early and often – our goal is to work as an extension of the family, advocating for them in the absolute best way possible.
We then research, evaluate, and identify potential schools and programs. We’ll review best options, discuss and deliver pertinent information, assess curriculum and grading systems, and organize school visits and interviews.
When a final list of potential schools is determined, we then guide students and families through the application process as well as the registration and enrollment processes. We provide assistance on application essays, and guide families through all components of the application process utilizing best practices.
We place a number of students each year at schools where they are able to grow and succeed, and we maintain that connection with the student and family even after the student enters the school. Our goal is to make sure that the student is comfortable and content – from Day 1 to Day 100 and beyond – and with that, we look to guide a student as if she or he were one of our own.
Leonard Andrew Consulting looks forward to supporting students and families on this journey, working to ensure that they road is not only headed in the right direction, but is as smooth as possible.
If this service would be of any help to you, your employees or your clients now or in the future, please do not hesitate to let us know! We'd love to do everything we could to support you, these individuals and their employers.
