Casandra "Lyn" Goodwin-Shawver '15 has always known she wanted to teach children. This is especially significant because the school she founded and owns, Lakemore K-12 school, celebrates 25 years of business. Lyn started the SUPER (Students Using Proven Educational Resources) Learning Center 25 years ago in her basement with 14 students. After 6 years, Lyn knew she needed to upsize to fit her growing business.
Lyn started to draw attention after she was able to help her own child, who struggled with dyslexia amongst other challenges. Two families have moved specifically so Lyn could teach their children. One family came from Columbus, and the other from California.
Fast forward to today, and SUPER Learning Center now works with 32 different school districts. There are over 150 students who attend SUPER, with waiting lists for 2 different grades. Lyn also employs 60 staff members to ensure there is a focused, individualized approach for each student who attends. More than 1,500 students have been taught by Lyn over her time with SUPER, with many more still to come. What started in a basement with 14 students has grown into an amazing business impacting hundreds of children. Congratulations to Lyn on this tremendous honor, we are so happy for you!
