HOUSTON, April 2, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- A nationwide survey of hundreds of teachers and school administrators shows that social media influence, behavioral outbursts, emotional uncertainties, lack of motivation and parental oversight are among the top challenges for students in the classroom today. In an effort to address these classroom issues, Apex Leadership Company, a child enrichment and fundraising franchise, is rolling out a tailored curriculum starting this July to target these issues and introduce character-building lessons to thousands of participating schools – aiming to inspire, encourage and motivate students to emerge as leaders of tomorrow.

Key Points:

  • Lack of Motivation: Many educators expressed concerns about students' lack of motivation, tendency towards instant gratification, and reluctance to tackle difficult tasks.
