Our Partners

Proximity Learning

“Proximity Learning Inc. (PLI) is a fully accredited online education provider based in Austin, TX. Unlike most online programs, many of our courses are built around regularly scheduled live class sessions delivered via web-conferencing. Our live instruction model closely approximates the experience of a traditional brick and mortar classroom setting, but is conducted entirely online. Our courses also include the same types of asynchronous elements and online materials as traditional online courses.”

PikMyKid

“After spending hours of time in car pick-up lines at his daughter’s school, PikMyKid Founder, Pat Bhava, set out to discover why the school dismissal process is so broken. He quickly learned that the school dismissal process is inefficient, unsafe, and very costly to schools. What’s worse is that, in today’s digitally-driven world, the only technology schools use to manage this process are megaphones, walkie talkies, and clipboards. Pat set out to build a system to make the school dismissal process smarter, safer, and cheaper. The product of that work is PikMyKid!”

Mark possesses a deep understanding of the creative process; the artists who live by this process; the children hungry to express themselves. Observing similarities in how artists and children work and play; Mark knew there was a better way to teach music; one that would foster creativity and self-expression; communication and collaboration; and develop the autonomy required to master the creative process.

Aligning his work with his strong sense of social justice; in 2003 Mark founded Rock and Roll Academy; a sacred space where play, socialization, and student choice drive an educational experience grounded in love, authenticity, and democratic principles.”
