Hi, I’m Zaneta Papis, and I am a parent to a uniquely minded child.
I worked as a tech professional for twenty years where I learned the importance of innovation. I spent those years anticipating change and adapting to emerging trends. And while I’ve watched my son fill in endless worksheets for homework, I’ve realized schools aren’t properly preparing our kids for the real-world. I bring experience in problem solving with the understanding that trying out new ideas, curiosity, collaboration, and experimenting while learning from trial and error empowers young minds and prepares them for bright futures.
Today, I run an afterschool program dedicated to building community and empowering uniquely minded kids through visualization, creativity, and problem-solving. My own parenting path, riddled with frustrations, has led me here. The real catalyst for starting a school was knowing that I wanted my own child to be in a supportive and innovative learning environment that built his confidence during the vulnerable, early-adolescent years.
