Score At The Top Learning Centers & Score Academy Vision: To be the Learning Environment of Choice Mission: To provide an individualized, relationship
(1)

Score At The Top Learning Centers & Schools have been family owned and operated since 1980, when Judi Robinovitz, Certified Educational Planner, started the company in New Jersey. Capitalizing on her background as a passionate student at the top of her class, and on her professional experience at Educational Testing Service (the company that created the SAT for the College Board), Judi provided 1-

on-1 academic tutoring, SAT prep, and college counseling services to high-school students. When the demand for her services quickly exceeded the capacity of her home office, she hired and trained additional tutors to help prepare students for the SAT and tutor them in academic subjects. Judi actually started her tutoring career as a high-school student, tutoring her peers in advanced math courses. (She’s a self-proclaimed math nerd!)

When Judi moved to Florida in 1992, with the encouragement of her husband Alan, she opened the first physical Score At The Top Learning Center in Vero Beach. The center was designed to provide students and their families with academic support and guidance beyond what was available in local schools. Lured by Boca Raton families whose children drove up to Vero Beach to meet with Judi and her staff, Judi and Alan opened a second Score At The Top Learning Center in Boca Raton in 1996. Word-of-mouth rapidly spread about the success of Score At The Top students, and the Boca Raton center quickly grew from a handful of tutors in a 1,000-square foot learning center to 25+ tutors in its current space of over 6,000 square feet – in Boca Raton’s first LEED gold-certified green building! When Judi moved to northern Palm Beach County in 2000, her tutors from Boca Raton and Vero Beach traveled there to tutor students in their homes. Judi also hired and trained several local professionals to provide quality tutoring and test-prep services to these north-county students. Within a year, Judi and Alan solidified their physical presence in Palm Beach Gardens by opening their third Score At The Top Learning Center. Like the previous facilities, the Palm Beach Gardens center has continued to flourish – attracting students from all over northern Palm Beach, Martin, Saint Lucie, and Indian River counties, and adding more than 40 professionals to the tutoring staff. Three years later, Judi and Alan sold the original center in Vero Beach in order to open another Score At The Top Learning Center in Wellington to support the increasing demand for tutoring and guidance services from families both nearby and from as far away as Orlando and Tampa. In addition to providing academic services to hundreds of student living in these areas, the Wellington center provides a complete 1-on-1 education for students from all over the country who spend the winter months competing at Wellington’s international Winter Equestrian Festival (W.E.F.). At the urging of many of our Broward County families, we opened Score At The Top Learning Center in Coral Springs/Parkland in 2007. Shortly thereafter, Jason Robinovitz joined his parents in the family business. After practicing law for five years, Jason decided to follow in his parents’ entrepreneurial footsteps as both the Director of the Coral Springs/Parkland center and the Chief Operating Officer of the company. Jason expanded Score At The Top’s reach in Broward County by opening a satellite center in Weston in the summer of 2010. That same year we opened a satellite center in West Palm Beach to serve the growing needs of our families in northern Palm Beach County. Through Jason’s insight and technological savvy, Score At The Top began offering virtual tutoring services to students from all over the world. Jason plans to continue the company’s growth by opening additional centers in Florida and other states. All Score At The Top Learning Centers are accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Council on Accreditation and School Improvement (SACS CASI) and AdvancED. Accreditation reflects our commitment to continuous improvement and expansion of services to include an accredited ONE-on-ONE private-school education in an individualized environment substantially different from that of a traditional classroom – thus our name change from Score At The Top Learning Centers to Score At The Top Learning Centers & Schools. As accredited schools, we enroll students in grades 1 through 12 on a rolling basis throughout the year, offer summer school at all grade levels, and individual courses for credit throughout the year for students who want to enhance their curriculum or improve their GPA. We are proud of the fact that all Score At The Top graduates have continued their education in 4-year Florida and out-of-state universities. We hope you’ll send your child to us to score at the top of his or her potential!

What if the most important skill for succeeding with AI isn’t coding — but writing?

Jason Robinovitz explores that idea in his new guest column for EdTech Digest, “Writing Is the New Coding.”

As AI tools become increasingly conversational, the advantage won’t simply belong to people who know how to operate the technology. It will belong to those who can think clearly, communicate precisely, ask the right questions, and recognize when an answer isn’t good enough.

Jason argues that writing has always been “thinking made visible.” In an AI-driven world, that matters even more: students need to develop their own reasoning and writing ability before AI can genuinely accelerate their work rather than replace the thinking behind it.

For educators, that means putting the process back at the center — watching how ideas develop through brainstorming, drafting and revision, rather than judging only the finished product.

AI fluency matters. But it has to rest on something deeper.

Become a strong writer first.

COLLEGE SPOTLIGHT: UNIVERSITY OF MIAMI 🌴

For Florida students looking for strong academics, extensive research opportunities, and the energy of a major international city without necessarily leaving the state, the University of Miami can be an exciting option to explore.

Located in Coral Gables, UM offers more than 100 majors and programs, opportunities across more than 90 research centers and institutes, study-abroad programs, Division I athletics, and a vibrant campus community.

But students applying for 2026–27 should also know about an important admissions change:

The University of Miami has eliminated its supplemental essay.

A shorter application doesn’t necessarily make admission simpler. For most first-year applicants, SAT or ACT scores remain part of the admissions process, making the other pieces of the application — academic rigor, activities, personal statement, recommendations, and testing — especially important.

And as with any college, the bigger question isn’t simply, “Can I get in?”

It’s: Is this the right academic, social, and financial fit for me?

JRA Educational Consulting helps students and families build thoughtful college lists and develop personalized application strategies based on much more than rankings or name recognition.

This week’s News from the Top is live: “A Tale of Two Professors.”

In his latest piece, Jason Robinovitz looks at the very different paths of two groundbreaking Black academics — Harvard economist Roland Fryer and former Cambridge professor Jason Arday — and asks a much bigger question about higher education.

When allegations, controversy, and uncomfortable evidence enter the picture, are principles like academic integrity, due process, and institutional support applied consistently — or can the response depend on whose ideas and worldview are being challenged?

For Jason, the comparison raises an even more important concern: what happens to genuine intellectual inquiry when young researchers see that challenging prevailing ideas may carry a very different risk from reinforcing them?

It’s a thought-provoking look at viewpoint diversity, academic culture, and the lessons institutions teach students through what they do — not simply what they say.

Preparing college applications this fall? Don't overlook the STARS.

Many colleges—including 9 of Florida's 12 public universities—use the Self-Reported Transcript and Academic Record System (STARS) as part of the admissions process. Completing it accurately is essential, and even small mistakes can delay your application.

In last week's webinar, Kathy Hart walked families through:
✔ What STARS is and which colleges use it
✔ How to correctly report courses, grades, GPA, and senior-year classes
✔ Common mistakes students make—and how to avoid them
✔ Important submission and materials deadlines
✔ Tips for dual enrollment, homeschool, international, and transfer scenarios

If you're applying to college this year, this is a resource worth bookmarking.

AI isn't the problem. Blind trust is.

As artificial intelligence becomes a bigger part of education, the conversation is shifting from "How do we catch students using AI?" to a much more important question:

How do we teach students to use AI thoughtfully and responsibly?

Critical thinking, evaluating sources, and asking better questions are becoming essential academic skills. Rather than relying solely on AI detectors, schools have an opportunity to help students become informed, discerning users of these powerful tools.

Jason Robinovitz explores this topic—and several other important developments shaping education—in this week's News From The Top.
