THE LAUREL SPRINGS ADVANTAGE How a premier online private school empowers junior equestrians WORDS: APRIL BILODEAU
IN THE WORLD OF junior equestrian sports, balanc-
ing rigorous training schedules with academics is a true uphill battle. Whether it’s pulling your child out of school on Thursday for a weekend competition or hustling to the barn at the sound of the afternoon bell, traditional brick-and-mortar learning settings can serve as tough obstacles for young riders. This is where Laurel Springs School emerges as a transformative option. The fully accredited online private school for K-12 learners is known for nurturing the dreams of its students and fostering an educational environment that’s 100% flexible, personalized, and uniquely suited to the lifestyles of aspiring athletes, performing artists, and accelerated learners. At Laurel Springs, equestrians no longer have to choose between their passion and academic ambitions. Instead, they’re championed in both realms.
