Based on effective faculty and staff modeling, the students explicitly maintain a culture of mutual support; older students see themselves as positive mentors for younger students. Differences are respected and celebrated as important. No one “falls through the cracks.” My child was brilliantly prepared for success at UVA. She’s at the UVA Law School now! Thank you for everything you have done for her and our family.

Six years after graduation, my son still draws on what he learned at Tandem, as he continues to mature as a person and furthers his studies in graduate school. Tandem provided him a solid foundation for on-going growth.
