OUR APPROACH

Expertise. Collaboration. Ingenuity.

Middle and high school students rarely get the individualized mentorship they need to be successful through their school. In fact, according to the American School Counselor Association,  the national average ratio of students to school counselors is 385-to-1. Moreover, school counselors typically only meet briefly with students once or twice over four years. Most often, these short check-in meetings typically only take place during students' senior year - when it's way too late to make significant, meaningful progress.

EduSail knows your student deserves more. That's why we specialize in forming an inclusive, joyful Crew that serves your student's individual needs. Learn more about the members of your Crew below.

Our Curriculum

EduSail’s research-based approach is grounded in a three-part guidance framework that supports students as they grow, discover their interests, and prepare for the next chapter. This structure ensures that students receive the right type of support at the right developmental moment, creating a smooth, intentional progression from early exploration to confident college applications.

Foundations

 

The Foundations stage typically begins in middle school and early high school, when students are learning who they are as thinkers, learners, and community members. During this time, they strengthen habits like organization, time management, leadership, and communication, while also beginning to explore emerging interests. Students reflect on goals, build confidence, and develop the essential academic and personal skills that will help them succeed. This early groundwork ensures they enter the next chapter prepared and self-aware. By building these skills early, students develop the clarity and resilience needed to grow with intentionality.

Exploration & Strategy

In grades 9 through 11, students move into the Exploration & Strategy phase, where they begin to shape a more intentional path toward their future. During this stage, they dive deeper into their interests, explore potential majors and career fields, and build meaningful involvement in activities that align with their strengths. Students learn how college admissions works, begin to understand what makes an application competitive, and make purposeful choices about coursework, extracurriculars, and enrichment opportunities. This phase helps them create an authentic, well-rounded profile that reflects their growing sense of identity and purpose.

Applications & Transition

By senior year, students enter the Applications & Transition phase, where they apply what they’ve learned to confidently share their story. During this stage, they receive structured support with essays, college lists, activity descriptions, recommendations, and application timelines. Students also explore scholarships and financial aid, weigh admission offers, and prepare for the academic and personal transition to college. Through consistent guidance and feedback, they refine their goals, make informed decisions, and build the practical skills needed for success beyond high school. This final phase ensures they finish strong and step forward with confidence.
