What happens when we stop trying to change the kid… and start changing the way we teach them?

What if the real issue isn’t the student — but the system?

Vince didn’t need fixing.

He needed something different.

From kindergarten through third grade, he was the loud one—the class clown, the kid with all the energy and big ideas. Notes came home often, not because he was misbehaving, but because he was bored. He wasn’t disruptive out of defiance. He was just a bright, curious learner in a setting that didn’t work for him.

But where some saw a “problem,” we saw:

✅ Natural curiosity

✅ Quick wit and creative thinking

✅ A mind wired for innovation and imagination

So we shifted the setting.

We gave him tools that matched his energy: a skateboard, a sketchbook, and design software. And suddenly, the spark ignited. Today, Vince is designing skate ramps, mastering CAD, and sharing ideas with city planners. He’s using his voice, his skills, and his unique lens on the world to help build something bigger than himself.

This is what happens when we stop asking kids to sit still… and instead, invite them to stand up and build.

This is what happens when we start fixing the way we teach them.

Blown away? Yes, us too! And this is just the trailer.

Because not every kid needs a new school…

Some just need a new setting.
