For School Counselors
Have a heavy caseload of students?
We understand. Sports Dreammakers will enhance what you do for your student athletes. In spite of the hard work of counselors across America, A recent study conducted by Stanford University called The Bridge Project (http://www.stanford.edu/group/bridgeproject) reflected that fewer than 12 percent of students surveyed across five states were familiar with the course work requirements for admission into specified colleges. For student-athletes, this is especially important because they stand to lose large amounts of scholarship money if not fully informed. College coaches tell me all the time that they have to stop recruiting un-recruitable athletes who have not taken the proper steps to ensure eligibility. These student-athletes miss out on great opportunities.
Why not bring in Sports Dreammakers for a day to help your student-athletes. Wouldn't it be great to put them in a position for success? We also offer products and services to make your job easier, and to make YOU the hero.
If you haven't seen NextStep Magazine: Your Life, After High School's college counselor resource center you might want to take a look.

whether we have enough security in our schools, but do we have enough
dreams? Yes, dreams are what youth is built on. Dreams are what can inspire
and drive teens through school and into life. It’s those dreams and
believing that they can come true that propels them in the morning to
get out of bed. Give a person a dream, and you’ll
give a person a reason to go to school, and a reason to live. Give people a dream, and you’ll give
them a reason to wake up and face the day, and a reason to want to
achieve. Give a person a dream, and you’ll give that person motivation.
