PEP’s mission is to create, support, and implement programs that develop healthy, positive kids. Our purpose is to help children develop strong bodies, strong minds and emotional power.

We believe that children are whole children. Like adults, children are mental, physical, and emotional beings and as parents and teachers we need to address and develop all these areas of their lives. Focusing on just test taking skills in our schools is not enough. We must feed them whole foods and engage them in exercise to develop strong bodies and minds. We must teach them simple strategies backed by the latest research in neuroscience to develop mental muscle and a positive, happy mindset. We must teach them how to manage their emotions to reduce stress, overcome adversity and communicate effectively with others. After all 80% of adult success is determined by emotional intelligence and yet in most schools we are not teaching the emotional skills children need to succeed. When you see each child as a whole child, not just test taker or a physical body, you realize that we need a whole solution to teach and raise a whole child.
