Damian Creamer, Founder & CEO“We strive to create seamless, intuitive experiences that spark a sense of wonder in students and lead them to discover and follow their passion with the confidence to succeed,” says Damian Creamer, Founder and CEO, StrongMind.
At the outset, StrongMind was an exclusive technology and curriculum partner for Primavera Online High School in Arizona. Because of this, the company has first-hand knowledge of the valuable role that teachers play and it constantly endeavors to evolve their role in the virtual learning world.
“Using technology such as AI and machine learning, we are building systems that provide teachers with actionable insights and that reduce clerical work, allowing them to spend more time interacting directly with students to provide a more personalized education,” Creamer highlights.
StrongMind partners with other leaders in the edtech space to drive improved academic outcomes while adopting interoperability standards and participating in open source projects to share learning. One example is its collaboration with ATI—a veteran in the assessment space—to deliver Galileo assessments that provide StrongMind schools with diagnostic, growth, and proficiency data that help them provide a more effective, efficient, and personalized education.

StrongMind Announces Partnership with Omaha Virtual School
Monday, July 17, 2023
CHANDLER, Ariz., -- StrongMind announced a new partnership with the Omaha Public Schools (OPS) to provide comprehensive digital courses for students in grades 6-12 at the Omaha Virtual School (OVS). The virtual school is a full-time, tuition-free program within OPS, where instruction is delivered through a blended learning environment, combining the benefits of virtual and traditional classrooms. Online learning is enriched with opportunities for hands-on labs, guest speakers, field trips, and face-to-face collaborative learning.
"StrongMind is very excited to partner with the Omaha Virtual School (OVS) to provide high-quality digital courses for students in grades 6-12," says Melissa Slone, Senior Vice President of Sales and Services at StrongMind. "We look forward to working with OVS in delivering best in class digital courses that offer a flexible pathway for students and families seeking a college and career ready education outside of the traditional classroom."
StrongMind is dedicated to delivering digital courses tailored to students in grades 6-12 who are enrolled with OVS. These courses are founded on comprehensive research, hold Digital Promise certification, and are in alignment with the Nebraska Content Area Standards. The curriculum comprises diverse and engaging elements, such as rich-media resources, interactive activities, assessments of varying levels of complexity, performance tasks, project-based learning, collaborative opportunities with educators and peers, and optional assistance for students who may require additional support. Progress and learning are continuously monitored through comprehensive reporting, providing distinct perspectives for administrators, teachers, parents, and students alike.
To access the StrongMind courses, OPS users will utilize the district instance of Instructure Canvas, a reliable and robust learning management system (LMS). This approach ensures the school's convenience and flexibility in using the district LMS. Moreover, StrongMind is committed to delivering training to teachers and administrators on the effective utilization of the courses. Additionally, ongoing implementation support and professional development in utilizing digital courses' best practices will be provided to further enhance the learning experience.
"Our middle/high school students appreciated the videos with 'real people' and not cartoon characters and the learning tools available to them to support their learning and independent navigation of the curriculum. Our teachers appreciated the abundance of teacher resources that were available to them to support blended and virtual learning instructional models, as we support both," said Wendy Lowenstein, Director of the Omaha Virtual School, at the May 1, Omaha Public Schools school board meeting.
StrongMind and the Omaha Virtual School have joined forces to offer an array of captivating and adaptable learning choices, creating an environment where students and families can prosper.
