ABOUT EES
OUR STORY
Expanded Educational Services, Inc. was established in 2010 to address gaps in traditional educational systems by offering intentional, research-informed solutions that support both learners and the environments that serve them.
​
From its inception, EES was created to function not as a single program, but as a platform—capable of designing, operating, and sustaining multiple educational initiatives under one organizational framework.
WHY EES EXISTS
Expanded Educational Services exists because education does not occur in isolation.
Academic success is directly connected to leadership, environment, structure, and personal development. EES was founded to address these interconnected factors through programs and services that consider the whole person and the systems surrounding them.
​
This philosophy informs every initiative operated by the organization.
GUIDING PHILOSOPHY
EES is guided by three foundational principles:
