At Apogee Horizons, we call the essentials—Reading, Writing, and Math—our “Buckets.”
These are the foundational tools every child needs to think, create, and lead with confidence. Rather than forcing a one-size-fits-all program, we honor a parent-choice curriculum model, allowing families to select the approach that best fits their child’s learning style and pace.
Our role is to provide Tutorship and Mentorship, guiding students to mastery of these core skills while adapting the material into a Customized Learning Path. Through this approach, the Buckets become more than academic drills—they become gateways to curiosity, problem-solving, and critical thinking, preparing each child to tackle projects and challenges with creativity and confidence.
Reading is more than decoding words—it’s unlocking worlds. At Apogee Horizons, families choose the approach that best fits their child, whether phonics-based or literature-rich. We keep books all around the center and offer curated recommendations that inspire growth mindset, problem-solving, mystery, and triumph. Children select what sparks their curiosity while parents guide with their chosen materials. Through read-a-louds, Socratic discussions, and meaningful conversation, reading becomes an adventure that builds both skill and wisdom.
Writing begins with expression, not perfection. We encourage children to put their thoughts on paper—journals, stories, reflections, or after-action notes—so their voice can emerge. Over time, technical mastery naturally follows: grammar, structure, essays, and polish. Writing is treated as a lifetime craft, a form of art that grows with the human. Parents choose the curriculum that fits, while our mentorship inspires both child and parent to live the Apogee Code, making writing not just an academic skill, but a tool for clarity, leadership, and legacy.
Math is everywhere—in the projects we build, the budgets we plan, the challenges we solve. We begin with strong foundations: addition, multiplication, flashcards, and tables. When readiness meets curiosity, children accelerate into higher concepts at their own pace, discovering the excitement of critical thinking along the way. We celebrate both mistakes and victories, because growth happens in both. Through hands-on, project-based math, learners experience numbers as a living language woven into everyday life.
Tim’s hard work and passion have resulted in an extraordinary life. Green Beret, UFC Fighter, and Television Host are all among his career highlights, but perhaps not as personally meaningful as Husband, Father, and Patriot. Tim is a great example of being unapologetically American!
