In 2020, Time magazine published anarticle that declared, “The movement to reform America’s education system is dead because every strategy imposed on the nation’s schools failed.” These issues have been seemingly compounded by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic,as it’s been reported by outlets ranging from CBS to the Washington Post, that students have been struggling both academically and emotionally.
This cannot be a norm that America accepts. As a trusted voice and thought leader to school districts, youth groups, sports teams, and parent associations, Daniel has spent over 20 years working to empower young people to actively and passionately shape their futures.
With programming built on 19 Find A Tree Principles that include “Identify Your Passion,” “Nurture Your Dream With Knowledge,” “Build The Trust Of Others,” and “Create Opportunities Through Service,” Daniel effectively shapes values, promotes responsibility, and provides the psychological tools and life skills students need to succeed. The endorsements of his program are a testament to its efficacy, but the smiling faces, higher attendance, and increased graduation rates that result from his work are evidence of its life-changing impact.
Schools today teach students to go college, but they don't necessarily teach them how to achieve their dreams or how to discover and use their talents.
When graduating high school many teens know they should go to college, but don't know what career they wish to go into. This is a fundamental problem thatis plaguing many high school and college graduates.
