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- Like-minded neurodivergent peers. Our asynchronous students need one another and YSA is a safe haven for these kiddos to connect around their asynchronies, quirks, and interests. We’re a place where they can be their authentic selves and make friends while doing so!

    3- 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

    4-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 offer a satisfaction guarantee!

    If you’re not 100% IN LOVE with your camp, you can:

    1- Transfer to another equal-value class at no charge (space permitting)

    2- Get a 100% refund to a YSA credit

    Refund requests must be received up to 24 hours after the first day of camp. After 24 hours after the first class begins there will be no refund of tuition.

    Note- this is a satisfaction guarantee, therefore your child must attend class to qualify.

  • We do! We have 3 kinds:

    1- Word of mouth: GET UNLIMITED $35 COURSE/CAMP CREDITS!

    We know that the best way to reach new families is word of mouth.

    ❇️ At checkout you will get a CUSTOM LINK that you can share with families

    ❇️ YOU GET A $35 CREDIT TOWARD MORE/FUTURE YSA CAMPS/COURSES every time a NEW family enrolls with your link!

    ❇️ Families who use your custom link WILL GET 10% off their 1st course at YSA!

    ❇️ THERE IS NO LIMIT on how many times you can use this with new families!

    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.

    3- Multi-Camp: When you enroll in 3 or more summer camps in the same week, you will receive 10% off of all summer camps!

  • YES! We are an approved vendor for many organizations and counties in the United States.

    Please email sam@youngscholarsacademy.org to find out if we’re approved with your charter/organization =)

  • 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.

  • 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?

Picture This…

It’s 1 week from now and we’re sitting down in a cafe…

You’re gushing because you’ve never seen your child happier, with a strong sense of belonging, sharing inside jokes with new friends, all while learning advanced content with expert mentors.

This is not a far-off fantasy. It’s REAL!

To live this dream, enroll in a YSA Camp, TODAY!

Hi from Mr. Sam! 👋

Wherever your child is on their twice-exceptional/neurodivergent journey, NOW is the best time to take the next step towards thriving- and at Young Scholars Academy, you can see your child thriving from day 1.

If we don’t already know each other, I want you to know that I quit my job for your child. I know that you may be feeling anxious, uncertain, or frustrated about what the next step is on the journey to seeing your child become all that you know that they are capable of being.

As a neurodivergent adult and a career educator of twice-exceptional students, I’ve been there. I understand.
