That’s why we combine personalized instruction with proven systems that help students stay motivated, celebrate progress, and enjoy learning. For many students with ADHD, autism, AuDHD, and other learning differences, the right environment can make all the difference.

Learning becomes something students look forward to

  • Students earn virtual currency called Kelp Kudos during each session. Kudos can be earned for arriving on time, being prepared, participating positively, and giving strong effort. They are not based on grades or how many answers are correct. This helps students connect success with behaviors they can control.

  • Students who earn the maximum Kelp Kudos in a session unlock a chance to spin our virtual Prize Wheel. Possible outcomes include bonus Kudos, fun surprises, treats, and jackpot entries. Grand Prize winners move on to a second Grand Prize Wheel where they can win a real prize delivered to their door!

  • Each month, the student with the most Kelp Kudos is named our Star Fish of the Month. They receive recognition, a special prize, and a pizza reward for their outstanding consistency and effort.

  • Students also work together toward a monthly Cumulative Kelp Kudos Goal. When the group reaches the target, every participating student earns a reward. This encourages community, teamwork, and cheering each other on.
