Your Class of 2030 Student Has Four Years. Most Families Waste the First One.
The 9th Grade Foundation System gives your freshman, and you, a clear month-by-month strategy from day one. Because the choices made in freshman year set the trajectory for everything that follows.
The Foundation System
Built for exactly where a Class of 2030 student should be focused right now.
Your own track: what to know, what to say, and how to support without overstepping.
One live call for students, one for parents. Every month. Not a recording.
A practical guide or tool around the 15th to keep momentum going.
What Nobody Tells You About Freshman Year
The college admissions process doesn't start in junior year. It starts now.
The GPA that begins accumulating this semester appears on every application your student submits in three years.
The activities they start this year are the beginning of a record, and beginning matters.
The habits built now, how they manage homework, how they talk to teachers, how they show up when things get hard, are the ones they carry into the years that feel high-stakes.
Most 9th grade families are working with a counselor responsible for 300 students and advice that's either alarming or vague. What's missing is a clear, trusted, grade-specific plan, with an expert who has guided hundreds of families through this exact moment.
How It Works
You enroll as the parent. Your student automatically gets their own separate login and student track.
A new module opens on the 1st of each month for both of you, with a bonus resource around the 15th. Your first module goes live August 1, 2026.
Join the live monthly coaching calls with Shereem, and email a college planning coach anytime with questions about your student.

Live Every Month
Every month, your student joins a live group coaching call with other Class of 2030 students. Every month, you join your own separate parent coaching call. Shereem is in the room for both. This is not a recorded webinar. It's a live conversation, every month.
Why It Works
The same strategy a private consultant offers, with live monthly support, for a fraction of the cost.
Guessing alone at midnight, with no plan and no one to ask.
Real strategy, but a single hour runs $150 to $350. Out of reach for most families.
Expert strategy and live monthly support, for less than the cost of one consultation hour.
