As a nation, we pour BILLIONS of dollars into public education, but consistently fail to move the needle. Every few years, there is a new supposed “solution” to save our schools and our students.
Several years ago, educators blamed outdated technology for the reason why our school system was failing. Having heard this, Bill Gates decided to give $5 billion to update public school technology. Ten years later in a Wall Street Journal Article, Bill said that his $5 billion failed to move the needle at all. All this money was poured into schools and there was nothing to show for it!
The Solution

The Five Star Solution
Five Star Life has a simple philosophy and solution to change the face of education. In order to truly move the needle, we must target the root of the educational crisis. At the core of every person’s success or failure is a mental and emotional operating system we call a mindset. Until public schools target and help students shift their mindsets, we will continue to fail! Students do not drop out of school, join gangs, and waste their lives because they do not have the capacity, but rather because no one has taught them how to think!
We accomplish this by providing schools with a variety of academic, leadership, and character programming that addresses the sources of negative mindsets. These programs include: our proprietary Video Curriculum for Classrooms, our afterschool program, as well as Leadership Camps and Day Trips at Summit.
All programming focuses on 5 key areas:
-
At-risk Education & Academic Support
-
Workforce Readiness
-
Mentoring
-
Character Education
-
Experiential Learning

For the past twelve years, our curriculum has helped thousands of students shift their mindset, which has resulted in students going from chronic academic failure to honor roll. By partnering with schools throughout the country, we have helped as many as 80% of entire school populations raise their GPA or maintain a 3.0 or above. We have worked with schools that have decreased the number of discipline referrals by as much as 70%. Research shows that students who participate in Five Star Life see academic increases, better school attendance, and less behavioral issues.
