Education 2019 - Out to Lunch - It's Baton Rouge

Although we all agree that education is the key to success in so
many areas of life, getting an education isn't as straightforward
and easy as we'd like. That's why whay Stephanie Riegel's guests on
this edition of Out to Lunch Baton Rouge do what they do.

Nancy Cadwallader is owner of Collegiate Advisory Placement
Service, an independent educational consulting firm that helps
families find the best educational options for their kids-from
elementary school all the way through graduate school. The firm
also works with families that may have a nontraditional learner and
those who need therapeutic programs with counseling support and
other resources. The firm was founded in 1984 by Nancy's mother,
the late Adele Williamson. Nancy is a certified education planner,
and has been very active in this area for more than three decades
now, speaking around the country on college and university
campuses.

Sarah Broome, founder and Executive Director of Thrive Academy,
makes a return visit to Out to Lunch to catch us up on what is one
of Baton Rouge's most inspiring and impressive charter schools.
Sarah founded Thrive in 2012, when she was a very idealistic and
passionate 25-year-old teacher, with a class of 20 sixth graders as
Baton Rouge's first boarding school for at-risk students. Today,
Thrive Academy has a new campus for its 180 students and has
graduated its first class of students.
