I cannot put a price on any child’s emotional well-being. She is happy. She is confident. She feels she has purpose.

We believe education is more than checking off a list of standards or teaching students to score high on achievement tests. Learning is a process and for each child, that process looks different. Each child is a child of God with distinct learning styles, passions, and strengths.
~ Angie Knight, co-founder of Marian Hope
