"When will I ever use this in real life?"
We've all heard or said this before in math class.
But math is very practical!
Take the LCM: the smallest number that can be evenly divided by 2+ numbers. Useful for when events repeat over time 🔁.

"You are what you read."
Like your food choices, your content diet & what you read shapes you as a person – even if you forget most of it.
#SpiritofEnglish students won't remember everything they read throughout the year, but they are better for having read it.

"It hasn't happened yet, but I'm due for it."
The law of averages: belief that the relative frequency of events should match its probability. A coin will land on either heads or tails 50% each.
This isn't real math.
Real outcomes can be random. Always leave room for risks 🎲.

Are you a problem finder or a problem solver?
At #SpiritofMath, we encourage our kids to adopt a solution-oriented mindset. Instead of waiting or relying on the teacher for answers, students tackle problems head on. This is after all what you'd expect from our future leaders.

What makes for a great story 📖?
There are hundreds of literary masterpieces.
Yes, they're all technically sound. But, the best have subtext. Plus, they're unpredictable – overturning expectations, much like when students join the #SpiritofEnglish program.

Who has the most influence on a child's development? Beyond parents, it's a teacher 🍎.
Teachers spend most of the year with children, shaping them. They know their strengths & weaknesses, their #learningstyles, & relationships with other students.

Is #SpiritofMath reserved for child prodigies?
No. Unlike Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, we want high performing students. These children don't necessarily know more, but they do process info differently.

What is a #SpiritofMath education 🎓 worth?
When you enroll your high performing child in one of our #afterschoolprograms, you are making a long-term investment – one with the potential for a high rate of return.

Whether you're a parent 👫, teacher 🍎 or principal 👴, having #honestconversations with a child instills confidence & helps them progress.
Tell them things as they are not as you'd like them to be.
