About
COACH EDUCATE EMPOWER
Rooney Education was founded on an educator’s passion to help students achieve academic success and develop essential lifelong skills.
Background
Rooney Education, an education consultancy, was founded on the principle of giving each student the tools and path to success. Our comprehensive services are designed to meet the individual needs of students and families throughout the United States. Our education programs provide students, schools, and universities programs strategically constructed to teach essential skills to all students. Writing techniques and organizational skills are foundational pillars of students' success. As a one stop shop, our organization addresses all educational needs while not losing sight of the value of education and all the opportunities it can provide.
For over twenty-five years our founder, Deb Rooney, has poured her heart and soul into students and educators. She prides herself on the integrity of her business and values her relationship with students' families and educators. Deb often says, “I do not feel like I have worked a day in my life” as her goal has never changed since she started sharing her knowledge. Now more than ever she aims to provide each child with the resources, tools, and techniques to achieve their unique goals.

Our Work with Team IMPACT
Rooney Education is a proud supporter of Team IMPACT, a nonprofit organization whose mission is to make a difference in the lives of all children. Team IMPACT matches children facing serious illness and/or disabilities with college sports teams creating a long-term, life-changing experience for all involved.
We share in Team IMPACT's mission and understand the importance of giving back to the community. When our students seek the opportunity to impact others, we help our students create and implement fundraisers, donating proceeds to Team IMPACT, to make a positive difference in children's lives.

FAQs
1) How many sessions does my student need to prepare for the private school entrance exam?
We wish we could provide a specific number, but unfortunately, there is not a certain number of sessions that works well for all students. Our individualized approach is designed to meet the child where they are, and considers a variety of factors when making a recommendation. We'll suggest not only the appropriate number of sessions, but also the timing of when to prepare for entrance exams.
However, if parents prefer to arrange for a specific number of sessions due to cost or schedules, a game plan can be designed to meet their needs, and the plan is first discussed to make sure it works for the student and the parents.
2) When applying to college, how does a student know which standardized test to prepare for?
A teen's learning style and academic strengths are important factors when determining which standardized test is appropriate. This is one of the many topics that is discussed at the initial meetings with the student and parents.
3) Do you discuss the support that my student needs with their teacher or attend school meetings?
This a personal decision and we leave it up to a family’s discretion about what works best for them. We are more than happy to speak with a teacher and/or attend educational meetings. We believe in a team approach, including teachers, parents, and administrators. Open communication helps your student succeed, which is always our goal.
4) Do you meet one-on-one or in small groups?
We offer a variety of services and environments. Please contact us! We are happy to discuss these different settings and assist you in determining which learning environment is best for your student's learning strengths and educational goals.
5) When conducting professional development seminars do you work with individual departments or an entire faculty?
We offer professional development services that are designed to meet a school’s specific needs. Talk to us, and we can suggest options for meeting your requirements.
6) Can you guarantee my student will be accepted into an independent school or a specific college?
No service or consultant can guarantee your student will be accepted into a school or college.
However, we are proud of our track record of high acceptance rate into schools and colleges across the country.
7) How does your college consulting differ from the services offered at school?
We offer a personalized approach and spend much more time guiding students through each facet of the process in a deeper manner than most school counselors, who must support a large number of students.
From the moment we meet with you and your teen, our focus is designing an individualized plan to meet their needs and achieve their goals. Our motivation is not getting your teen into a specific college, but rather helping them select and be accepted to a college where they will be happy and excel in all facets of college life.
