I am grateful to work in partnership with parents, as part of your team in your child's development. I have served the girl community for over twenty years. From the elementary classroom, to Girl Scout camp, to the oldest and most distinguished all-girls boarding school in the country, to all-girl educational adventures throughout Europe, it is absolutely my heart's work to lead, educate and empower young women. Girls are my spirit animal and I am their mentor, confidant, coach and b.f.f.

"Prepare to be charmed. From her genuine smile to her gracious wave, from her cheerful glow to a perfectly executed handshake, Jen Howard delights in inviting all into her world with authenticity, grace and warmth. She has a well deserved reputation for creating first class opportunities for girls to experience real community and celebrate their own uniqueness."
