Our daughter was struggling with public school. We knew we needed a change for her when we saw no interest, drive, and barely passing grades. Not to mention stressful an environment. We researched area private schools and came along Apogee. We met with Sarah and immediately knew this concept was something special! Since our daughter started at Apogee we have seen a complete 180 in many ways. She comes home excited to share all the amazing new experiences. Sarah does a wonderful job opening new growth for her students with daily field trips, speakers, and athletic development. We are just in awe of our daughter’s progress and this school.

Apogee has changed my life in just six weeks. For the first time, I feel safe to be myself, tackle my emotions, and set realistic goals for my future. The mentors and projects have opened my eyes to new ideas and careers I never considered before. I’m happier, more motivated, and excited about what’s ahead.

At Apogee, I’ve discovered a love for research and the freedom to explore topics I’m passionate about. I’ve also gained strength and confidence through regular physical activity, even though working out isn’t my favorite. The time management lessons have pushed me to try new strategies, helping me stay organized and tackle big projects. In just two sessions, I’ve grown so much, and I’m excited for what’s next.
