For students with engineering goals, The Pierce Institute bridges the gap between beginner robotics and competition-level engineering. More than just knowledge of coding, design, strategy, and electrical/mechanical components, we have 3 engineers and a Physics expert on staff to offer true mentorship and advice. Have a look at our multi-phase engineering pathway and different levels of participation. Link in comments.

Education is changing, and many families are looking for something more personal, more flexible, and more thoughtfully designed for the way their children actually learn.
⭐️The Pierce Institute is now offering new homeschool and flexible-learning support programs for both TEFA-funded and privately funded families.⭐️
From advanced math and science support to executive function coaching, SAT/ACT prep, STEM enrichment, and guided academic study, these programs were designed to provide meaningful support without sacrificing flexibility or individuality.
Some students need remediation.
Some need acceleration.
Some simply need an environment where they can thrive.
We’ve worked hard to create options that are academically strong, practical for real families, and sustainable across an entire school year.
Program details are now available on the website.
💙See first comment for the link.💙
Call or text 682-803-1965 to talk through options for your family; we’ve aimed to accommodate a large array of budgets.

SAT/ACT PREP-SUMMER SPECIALS: Summer is one of the few opportunities students have to meaningfully improve SAT and ACT performance without the constant pressure of schoolwork competing for attention.
At Pierce Institute, we’ve quietly been building a set of test preparation packages designed for students preparing for the July ACT, August SAT, and September SAT — with options ranging from highly targeted 1:1 instruction to guided academic support for students who need accountability, structure, and expert feedback while they work.
These are not mass-market prep courses.
They are individualized plans built around the student’s actual strengths, gaps, pacing, and goals.
Because of the level of personalization involved, availability will remain intentionally limited this summer.
Families who wait until late July often discover that:
• schedules are already full
• students are more anxious than prepared
• and there is no longer enough time for meaningful score growth
See link in comments for details on packages and to inquire or enroll.
