Synapse Articles & Blogs

Beautiful weekend here, wow. Hope you got outside and felt the sunshine. It’s good for you, remember.

“I've watched them grow as confident, inquisitive, and most importantly, kind kids who like themselves.” This message came to me in an email from a mom who has been with Synapse for over a decade. It was a grateful observation about her kids growing up in the Synapse environment -- and their dad wholeheartedly agrees.

Kind kids who like themselves. 

These words should be at the heart of all that we do here, each day, each hour, each minute. That’s our goal. If every student leaves Synapse kind and a little closer to knowing who they are, we have done our job. It’s a highly ambitious aim, inspirational and aspirational, and one we all need to understand. So when a parent asks, ‘What’s the mission of Synapse?’ You can say, ‘We’re raising kind kids who like themselves.’

If each Synapse parent can feel their kids are kind and like themselves we know we are living our mission.
