Greetings!
Welcome to the Land O' Lakes KnowledgePoints newsletter, In The Know. The summer is winding down and school will be starting before we know it....we hope your family has had a fun and productive summer. We're also very excited to annouce Diane Caruso as our new Directer of Education Services. Diane will be a tremendous asset to both our students and our staff. |
 Meet Our New Director!
I am excited to formally introduce our new Director of Education Services, Diane Caruso. Diane earned her degree in Elementary Education and has spent the past 14 years at Tampa Day School, a well-respected independent school in Tampa. Diane has taught many different grade levels over her career, and most recently served as the Assistant Principal and Interim Head of School at Lexis Preparatory School - Tampa Day's sister school in Scottsdale, Arizona.
Diane brings a wealth of experience working with many different types of students, ranging from those with special needs to gifted and talented students. She has also received extensive training in how to work with students who learn differently as well as those students who require Executive Function instruction. What stands out most, however, is Diane's passion for educating children and helping them find success.
Diane felt an instant connection with the KnowledgePoints philosophy and approach. She is very excited to be joining us and I know that she'll make a great addition to our team! |
 Get Ready for School
If you wanted to help your student prepare for a tough new class this school year but haven't done it yet...NOW IS THE TIME!
For most of our students, school will start back in just 3 weeks. Whether reviewing key fundamenetals needed, or previewing new concepts they'll be asked to learn, a little time spent now can pay big dividends in the fall. Give your child the skills and confidence needed to get off to a great start and make next year a great year! |

From Our Families
"For my entire school career I've lacked confidence in my mathematics skills. Thanks to your support and persistent tutors, I've made extreme progress and can honestly say I'm proud of myself. I'm in a place where I never thought I would be and can't express that enough. Knowledgepoints has been an incredible step forward for me and my grades. Thank you!"
