My teachers were so supportive, which was the biggest thing for me. Also, Laurel Springs’ self-paced model allowed me to complete or delay school work when I was competing. The flexible structure was crucial.
I love how learning online allows me to balance school with golf training and competitions. My personalized program lets me explore my outside interests, too. I also love my supportive community of teachers and friends.
Because I travel so much for tournaments, I love how I can work at my own pace. I can take my time to better understand something if I need to, or work ahead if I want to. I wasn’t able to do this when I was at a traditional school.

The Southern California PGA Junior Tour’s mission is to create learning and playing opportunities for juniors of all ages and skill levels throughout Southern California. We aim to utilize golf as a vehicle to instill values such as integrity, honor, and patience.
The SCPGA Junior Tour strives to foster and develop these values that will positively impact our member’s character on and off the golf course.
