What is a Learning Coach?

With Stride Career Prep, parents play an active and important role in their child's education—one we call the Learning Coach. In this role, you'll:

Provide academic support, motivation, and guidance throughout the school year
Ensure your student’s on track with assignments and coursework
Help and encourage your student with project-based learning
Communicate with teachers and report daily attendance if required by your school
Help with logistics and permissions for internships or work-based learning

If you or your child's legal guardian are unable to fill this role, you can choose a family member, a friend, or another trusted adult to be the Learning Coach.
