Shady Oak Primary

Debbie Elder is the nation’s leader in motivating students to be peak performers! In September 2013 Debbie became a best-selling author. She co-authored a book with Brian Tracy titled Against the Grain. In 2014 she released her second best-selling book Share Your Message with the World. Her varied background has equipped her to deal with any child under any circumstance. She has 27 years of experience working with children, teens and young adults in several different countries. Debbie has trained teachers in behavior management techniques for their classrooms and Corporate America employees in leadership and communication skills. Debbie ran an after-school program dedicated to helping students complete their homework and acquire the necessary life skills to be successful in and out of the classroom. A short two years after starting the after school program she was approached by her clients to open a school for their children in grades 6 – 12. Debbie opened a school and within three years she had 15 schools nationwide. In 2011, Debbie continued to help her families by becoming a college planner. In this role she was able to help parents pay for college and get their students ready to succeed in college and graduate on time.

Currently, Debbie has returned to her passion and is working with students in her afterschool franchise Set Them Up For Success – The Homework Hangout and her elementary school Shady Oak Primary, located in Richmond, Texas.
