Athletic Foundry Partnership
We are constantly looking for innovative tools & forward-thinking strategies to bring to Moreau Catholic High School that give our student-athletes every possible advantage to succeed once they enter 6th grade.
So it was our great fortune when we discovered a first-of-its-kind online “all year around” (not just “in-season”) platform for high school student-athletes and their parents that is simply like no other — a platform built by Athlete Foundry.
Athlete Foundry is an educational technology company that has built a powerful online student-athlete platform to help 6th through 12th grade student-athletes increase their odds to become a collegiate athlete, increase their college financial assistance potential, and help prepare for life after sports. Bottom-line, a holistic on & off the field approach that gives you full command of your student-athlete journey to help each student-athlete build a better version of themselves.
In fact, even if your student-athlete is not sure about playing in college, our platform and comprehensive roadmap not only create options but will highly benefit their pursuit of college.
After comprehensive research & evaluation, we have decided to team up with Athlete Foundry to provide its online platform to every single Moreau Catholic High School student-athlete (and alumni) at ZERO COST to you, period; this is unique offer only for Moreau Catholic High School student-athletes. Even if you are not sure about becoming a collegiate athlete, this tool lets you build your options, so you have nothing to lose and a lot to gain.
