Wellspring’s educational products are inspired by our late friend Bruce Hayes. Bruce began his teaching/coaching career in Japan in the 1980’s. He taught and coached around the world until the early 2000’s when he moved to Cinco Ranch Highschool to spend 20 years pouring his life into the kids in Katy, Texas.
His love for students was evident in everything he did. In each of his classrooms, Bruce had the letters CWM prominently displayed encouraging his students to “chase what matters.” He constantly pushed them to not just memorize facts, or learn data, but to think critically and pursue things in life that are important, and to make an impact wherever you are.
Bruce’s hope each day was that he would be interrupted. That as he went about the business of teaching and coaching – a student would interrupt his day. Bruce knew that these interruptions were usually to discuss life and talk about important things.
Wellspring’s goal is to provide tools for educators like Bruce, who love their students and strive to impart meaningful skills and knowledge to them, that will enrich their lives by teaching them to chase what matters.
Wellsprings Character Education is delivered through a proven and effective, stepwise, learning model for student comprehension and meaningful classroom delivery.
