Current parent at Sora
Sora really helped our family to achieve our son’s dreams. He is into racing and we travel across US participating in multiple competitions.
We have a robust orientation process for all new students and their families to understand how to excel in our unique program. This includes a series of informative workshops, “foundations” expeditions, guided registration planning with your student’s advisor, and icebreaker events for students to bond with their new housemates.
