…all about NYC teens! 

Welcome! As the only agency in NYC dedicated exclusively to the teen journey, we’re a springboard to young adulthood and academic excellence. Services: consulting, referrals, events, trainings, and foster the bespoke co-op, Project SOME. 

Springboard serves the secular, decentralized (aka, homeschooling) community at the h.s. level. We guide & unite NYC parents seeking outsourced instruction, assisting them in their search for small-group, indie professors. With SOME, teens access safe, smart, practical, and exciting in-person learning for academic achievement. We also host services for independent educators (tutors/professors) in the realm. As a public service B-corp, we foster co-piloting the teen journey with a mission to make self-directed learning better for the teens’ benefit.
