Is your child struggling to get to school?<br />

With anxiety, depression and bullying on the rise in schools, many children are struggling<br />

to get themselves to class. A change in environments can sometimes be what is needed<br />

for a student to get back on track. EYC Academy [Empowering Youth and Communities<br />

Inc.], which opened in 2018, helps students find their way to academic achievement<br />

through a one-teacher, onestudent<br />

school environment.<br />

EYC offers full- and part-time<br />

ongoing enrollment at its Town &<br />

Country location or, for students<br />

who work best at home, an<br />

online option with a live, realtime<br />

teacher.<br />

EYC was conceived by a team<br />

of local educators whose vision<br />

was to bring outstanding, oneon-one<br />

private education to sixththrough<br />

12th-grade students.<br />

EYC is designed for families seeking a more attentive and therapeutic educational<br />

environment. It contains all of a student’s educational needs under one roof – school<br />

credit, therapy/counseling, private tutoring and test prep, school advocacy, specialty<br />

training such as martial arts, therapy dogs, art therapy and more.<br />

“The one thing that is huge for me about EYC is the ‘Why?’” EYC Academy Director Lou<br />

Reuss said. “We believe that education can be different. We believe that every child can<br />

have an education that’s fitted to their learning style, in an environment that makes them<br />

feel heard and safe.”<br />

At EYC Academy, students work at<br />

their own pace with a private teacher,<br />

following state-approved curriculum<br />

and a competency-based approach<br />

– all in a private environment.<br />

Call EYC Academy today and see<br />

why it may be the right choice for<br />

your child.<br />
