Most importantly, to cultivate a sense of self-inspired learning that will make students lifelong learners. Follow a student-centered, project-based, teaching technique that integrates the concept of many bits of intelligence. After all, education would be far more effective if its goal was to instill in each child a lifetime drive to study more by the time they graduated from high school. Excelsior American Educational is part of a prestigious Houston, Texas-based school system founded by founder, Hersh Kumar.
