Earn More Than a Diploma
Students deserve direction, purpose, and a future they are excited about!
I recently spoke with Janine Deems, Founder and CEO of Smarter by 1 Degree, an innovative education company reshaping the way teens learn in high school. Rethinking education allows students to have time for career exploration, volunteering, interning, trade school, or a bachelor's degree during high school.
A dynamic speaker and visionary leader, Janine travels the country teaching about education reimagined. A research-backed, mastery-based instructional model that leverages technology, innovation, strategy, and purposeful learning to prepare students for success after graduation. With more than a decade of experience as an Education Strategist, 25 years of experience as an Educator, and the privilege of helping thousands of students meet their educational goals.
Her mission is rooted in a simple belief:
Every student deserves more than a diploma. They deserve direction, purpose, and a future they are excited about!
In our conversation, we discussed:
What it means to earn more than a diploma
The importance of learning and experiences outside of the classroom
How experience outside the classroom builds confidence
Why starting early brings options and calm
How extracurriculars can lead to more scholarships
And much more…
