Happiest [Co-Learning] Space on Earth
The SMART Lounge is established based on over a decade of experience and deep-seated conviction that families can “have their cake and eat it too” — children can both be wildly successful and passionately happy in high school, college and life beyond. It’s not that hard or mysterious. The secret sauce is in knowing your identity, finding your purpose (early on) and loving your family (which includes friends and neighbors). The SMART Lounge enables all this in a warm yet effective and exploratory yet efficient co-learning environment...
Projects
Curation of Future Relevant Experiences that are SMART
Future relevant experiences are the unsung heroes of great education. The SMART Lounge™ professionally curates projects from top institutions, subject matter experts, and industry leaders. Our projects are 'talent accelerators' and 'growth incubators' that enable our members to connect the dots between theory and reality, and even earn credentials + badges.
Projects curated by The SMART Lounge™ (a.k.a. SMART Projects) are practical and future relevant. They take students out of the security of their classroom and push them to the edge of comfort and put all that they are to the test. All SMART Projects require curiosity, creativity, confidence, courage, collaboration, the ability to clearly communicate, and think critically to solve real-world problems.
