OUR CLIENTS: ASI works with many types of clients with various needs and interests: families interested in public and/or private schools; children who are considered gifted, or typical, or have mild learning differences, or have significant special needs; local families and families that are relocating from out of state or just across town. Each client is so unique, but they all have one thing in common: ASI clients are parents who want to make intentional and informed educational decisions for their children.
Why Hire ASI?
Our team has extensive educational experiences with a variety of students and local schools, and we bring a wealth of knowledge to your consultation. That expertise is why people hire us in the first place. Then our clients quickly realize that our additional value lies in the personalized attention that we bring to assisting your family in your education planning. We know that a school is about more than their test scores, and that your child is about so much more than their report card. We take the time to learn about your family and to help you understand your options. This partnership is why our clients repeatedly hire us for additional support and enthusiastically recommend us to their friends.
Notes from happy parents:
“I enjoyed working with you to find the best school for our two girls. You brought several schools to our attention that we would not otherwise have considered. We ended up having to choose between three great schools, and ultimately decided on one which we had not previously considered. You made selecting a school less stressful by giving us all the information we needed to make an informed decision. Thanks for your help.”

"From the first phone call to the most recent text, I have always felt like you were there for me and Jonathan, and that you truly cared. Further, I knew that your knowledge base was vast, your experience extensive, and your heart for kids that might not fit inside the box, infinite! I appreciate the detailed notes you took when you observed Jonathan, that you sent to me. What was especially refreshing was that you were able to maintain a positivity and a support for my child even if his weaknesses were complex. I always knew you saw him as a whole child! I could never really pay you financially what you were worth, and yet, you never made that an issue for me. Your expertise and attention to detail enabled us to advocate and get what he needed and now he is where he can flourish and grow. I know that you are always in my corner as an education support but most importantly as a friend."

"We have had the joy and privilege of having Cindy Disher work with our son for nearly two years. Cindy's compassion and understanding for our son's needs have enabled him to thrive not only academically but emotionally as well. During all conferences and IEP meetings Cindy has kindly joined in. Her professional insight and understanding of our son has encouraged all educators to focus on the relevant needs and goals to help our son reach his full potential. Cindy has emphasized the importance of "All" being on the same page. With her professional input and compassion, Mrs. Disher has given not only my son confidence in his abilities but peace of mind and hope in us as his parents. Working with Cindy Disher has been a total blessing. Words can never express our gratitude enough to Mrs. Disher. - Lyndsay and David D. (Special Needs Consultation)
“My wife and I attended an Atlanta School Insight workshop which challenged us to work as a family to identify the best educational path for our two daughters. Tricia was a valuable resource and her shared experiences allowed us to successfully navigate the process of researching, selecting and applying to the school of our choice. A process that can be daunting and overwhelming was simplified and focused. The positive outcome is that our daughter is now enrolled in our top choice private school.”
-Neil and Amanda S. (ASI Workshop for Entrepreneur Organization of Atlanta)
“Tricia was vital in helping us understand the various private schools in the area. She led us to schools that were a right fit for our family and our values. She also gave us essential understanding about the local public schools, so that we could make an informed decision about public versus private education. We felt that we were able to make an enlightened decision about which private schools to apply our daughter. Additionally, we consulted with Tricia a third time prior to purchasing a house regarding the public schools in the neighborhood. Tricia’s advice was invaluable to us. We highly recommend consulting with Atlanta School Insight for any family considering their best education options in Atlanta.”

“Our request to cross attendance lines was approved! Christopher is officially part of the Woodland High School Wolfpack! I’m glad you came to Georgia Power on behalf of working parents. Had you not, I would not have had this outcome. I did not know where to begin or how to work within the public school system to get what I wanted for my son. You shared valuable information that made cutting through the red tape easier. Thanks!”
-Shauna G. (ASI Lunch-N-Learn for Georgia Power Working Parents Affinity Group)
“Tricia was great to work with. As busy working parents with full-time jobs, it was great to know that the search for something as important as an education for our daughter was being handled by someone who could dedicate the time and energy required. Tricia also listened very closely to our wishes and our “optimal” school setting, and was able to give us options that met our criteria well. Tricia’s educational background, as well as her innate desire to see beyond the “hype” of a brand gave us the comfort we needed to know that she would provide us the very best possible choices for our family.”
–Theresa and Greg S. (Private vs. Public School Choice Consultation)
“I was immensely impressed by your knowledge and the clarity of your presentation. You really gave me a framework and I actually already knew quite a bit since I attended private schools in Atlanta. I can’t imagine how helpful you must be for those who are new in town or if both parents went to public schools. I was also surprised by the affordability of the price for your services. Thank you so much for your insight into my twins’ education; I am a huge fan of yours!”
