NO MATTER YOUR AGE, SCHOOL NEVER TRULY LETS OUT . . .

"Studies have shown that only a quarter of college graduates have the writing and thinking skills necessary to do their jobs. Given this, we see a unique opportunity for young men and women of courage, commitment and faith to fill a gaping hole in our society.

We need to surround our students and young adults with teachers and mentors who understand the times and know what it is they should do. The Old Schoolâ„¢ curriculum has been developed through a foundational biblical worldview that focuses on developing extraordinary social, communication and leadership skills by focusing in these areas: Ready Recall, Using Fit Words, Personal Influence, Reason/Classic Argumentation, Storytelling, Time Management, Decision-making, Career Optimization, Life-long Learning and much more.

Any successful organization recognizes that the person who has technical expertise plus the ability to express ideas and exhibit wisdom 'beyond their years' should be placed in a leadership role. We need to mentor the next generation to fill these positions to influence and inspire others.

The Old School™ is committed to building strong individuals, families, communities and companies. And there is no better time than now for you to seize the moment and go 'old school!'"
