PERSONALIZED EDUCATION

Our Story and Mission at EdPath Family Education Advisors

EdPath’s mission is to provide customized support to students and their families as they navigate the many and varied facets of the educational process. We help students gain access to more opportunities and provide them with strategies that can benefit them throughout their academic career. The career of EdPath founder, Laura Spretnjak, has been shaped by teaching in both nationally acclaimed public high schools and gang-ridden urban schools. She is an eyewitness of the wide disparities that exist within the public education system in America. Despite those differences, she encountered one common denominator—frustrated parents. She observed the anguish of parents struggling to navigate bureaucracy and legal complexity in helping their child succeed in a public school.

Laura Spretnjak

Founder, EdPath and Boost Academy
20+ Years of Experience | Personalized Instruction | Expanding College & Scholarship Opportunities
I formed EdPath to help families customize the services of their public school system in a way that will best serve their children. Without knowledge of their child’s rights or even the options available, parents, and more importantly, their students are often tragically disadvantaged. The mission of EdPath is to level the playing field for students. Simply stated, we realistically advise families who believe their child’s needs are not being met. This includes understanding, managing, and explaining a child’s IEP; being an impartial liaison between the student and the school; and/or individualized ACT/SAT test preparation. People don’t work with me to increase their subject matter knowledge, although we do provide tutoring to those who need it. Families come to me for help navigating the business of school. I’ve developed analytics that help me identify where the opportunities are to improve your student’s academic footprint. Most importantly, I only work with students willing to put in serious time.
