Here, Your Child Will Have All 3 Cs

  • Captivating Content- Our students have young bodies and old brains… They NEED content that is not typically available to them due to their age.

  • Community- Our kiddos NEED one another! When together, they experience more: acceptance, belonging, patience, stimulation, and positive self-image!

  • Caring Mentors- Our children NEED mentors who truly: see, nurture, stimulate, and validate them. Our students need to look up at village elders who have walked the walk and can show them that everything is going to be OK!

What Our Parents Say…

  • “The classes were the highlight of my son’s week. Every week he came out of that class in a better mood than he went into it. We only wish he didn’t graduate so he could take more!”

    -Maurice

Questions Asked By Fellow Parents

  • Simple! 4 things:

    1- A focus on the positive! We don’t focus on what students aren’t doing, we support what they are and we know the rest will come. We develop strengths, interests, and relationships. We build students up so they can build a better world! And do it with the new friends they make in our program!

    2- Passionate, masterful neurodivergent mentors who have walked the walk and can authentically validate and support your child with personal experience and care AND expertise as we all have advanced masters + degrees

    3-Content your students care about taught in a way they love! We offer the courses they need to be taking, not the ones they’re required to take.

    Come by and see for yourself!

  • Please don’t confuse reactive “distance learning” and virtual enrichment programming. After all, a student who is completely fried from a boring zoom class is often quick to pick up a tablet or phone, right?

    Our courses are not at all the same animal =)

  • We do! We have 3 kinds:

    1- Word of mouth: 25% off- we know that the best way to reach new families is word of mouth. When you help another family enroll in a YSA class and they name you at checkout, you will get 25% off the cost of the course you’re currently enrolled in once they stay past the refund period. Note— this applies to all regular courses, BUT only applies to the first month of membership courses.

    2- Homeroom Social Club 100% off- When the same student enrolls in 2 courses AND Homeroom Social Club you will automatically discount 100% of the tuition for Homeroom Social Club. When enrolling in only one course, you will receive a 50% automatic discount on Homeroom Social Club

    3- Multi-sibling: 10% off- We believe in supporting whole families and we are willing to put our money where our mouth is! When you sign-up 2 or more kiddos you will receive 10% off. Note— this does not apply to our membership courses.

  • Of course! Our programming is for students who are not being supported or challenged enough in school.

    If you have an asynchronous kiddo who you know has strengths and struggles, our courses are for your child.

    As we like to say, if you’re on our site, you’re in the right place.

  • There are 2 kinds of refund requests:

    1- Traditional 8-Week Courses

    Refund requests for non-membership courses must be received up to 24 hours after the first course begins to do one of the following 3 options: transfer to another course of the same price, get a 100% refund credit toward a future class, or get a 75% money-back.

    After 24 hours after the first class begins there will be no refund of tuition. The non-refundable 25% deposit is critical as it allows us to determine which courses we can run.

    2- Membership Courses: 16-Week +

    The deposit made at enrollment is a non-refundable deposit. After that, 30-day notice is required to stop the membership. After 30 days, the membership will be stopped and recurring payments will be halted.

    Please read the description of each course before enrolling.

  • 2e students experience such asynchronous development that it proves difficult to have hard age limits.

    We often evaluate students on a case by case basis =)

    Please email us and we’ll discuss: sam@youngscholarsacademy.org

  • All of our programs are 100% virtual. This allows us to bring together the twice-exceptional/neurodivergent students of the world, connect them, and nurture them!

    Your child may very well enter a 6-person class with 5 other students from 5 different states/countries! Cool, right?
