myNavitar™

About Us
We are a small software company focused exclusively on improving education by providing educators with the most effective data management tools possible. For more information on us, check out our website http://www.escholar.com. While we are a well established company in the education technology marketplace, our newest product will be pitched to a broader, more diverse audience and so we want to create a new identity for it!

About the New App:
The application’s intended use is for students and teachers from early childhood to adulthood to build pathways to success. The vision is to have a platform for students, teachers and parents to collaborate with each other on building pathways to success. The application will allow students to participate and create their own plan for growth and success. The application will allow users to create/build their own “navitars” which are avatars that navigate lifelong learning.
