Raging Knowledge Philosophy: Why Educational Care?

Our experience and publicly available research demonstrates that school success and mental health are inextricably linked. As a result, we look to understand the whole child before developing a customized learning plan. Our approach to understanding your child is best described by Mel Levine, M.D., a well-known pediatrician and learning expert, in his book, Educational Care (2nd Edition, 2001):
“So much is at stake. Children who experience too much failure too early in life are exquisitely vulnerable to a wide range of complications. When these students are poorly understood, when their specific problems go unrecognized and untreated, they are especially prone to behavioral and emotional difficulties that frequently are more severe than the learning problems that generated them. It is not unusual for such students to lose motivation, to become painfully (and often secretly) anxious about themselves, to display noncompliance, to commit antisocial acts (including substance abuse and delinquent activity), and to lose ambition.”
Our dedication to helping your child through this difficult time has compelled us to hire a uniquely talented full-time staff and to assemble a Board of Advisors made up of world-renowned clinicians and educators.
