The Lawn Card Lady brings your celebrations to life one yard at a time! Whether it's birthdays, anniversaries, new babies, graduations, retirements, welcome home, or just because, we create bold, joyful yard greetings that make memories. We're all about spreading smiles. We come to you and handle all the details, from set-up to return/pick-up.
At The Learning Room, our academic coaches are educators and former classroom teachers who understand what’s expected at each grade level and the common reasons why students may not be meeting standards. After evaluating your child’s situation, we develop a personalized plan based on their level, but that plan adjusts as we get to know your child and discover the reasons behind the struggle.
Academic coaching is for any student that isn’t responding to basic tutoring but doesn’t qualify for special assistance from the school. We specialize in reading and math, both for public school students and homeschool students. We also have experience navigating the challenges of schooling for military families.
