Asora has undertaken the development of regional guidebooks to public schools to fill a market niche that is presently not served or under served by other types of guides.
(For reports that are focused on the development of Stellar Schools, including the business plan, please go to Reports on Development. For reports concerning school reform issues, including our consulting work in the estimation of NAEP proficiencies, please go to Reports on Reform.)
We have written and produced a guidebook for K-12 education in the three jurisdictions adjoining the Potomac River: Maryland, Virginia, and Washington D.C. The book's cover:
We are now selling a digital download version of the book for $10.00 or a paperback version sent to you for $25.00 (shipping included). Scroll down to find the PayPal BUY NOW buttons if you'd like to purchase the book. After payment we will either email you the download link or will ship the book to you.
When you purchase a guidebook in either format we will also send a free guidebook (pdf version) to a second deserving recipient whom you specify. Think of it as a "get one, give one" deal. We'd imagine that persons involved in charitable work or those on tight budgets might be chosen by you. Maybe a religious leader? Maybe a private school teacher? When we respond to your purchase with an email, we'll ask you to give us the contact information of the second recipient to enable us to provide the second book to that person or organization.
The book aims to help parents in two important areas of need: To find a better school. And to find supplementary services when the schools fall short (as they almost always do).

Planned Asora® Public School Guidebooks
We are planning to extend our original Potomac Region guidebook into other states:
We are currently generating the NAEP estimates for schools in the East Coast states (Georgia and the Carolina's are still to be done.) We are currently assembling the data for this book and are soliciting collaborators for this profit seeking effort.
Our new title for the guidebook,
When Even The Best Are Bad
reflects the results we are generating. Whether we successfully complete this book will depend on our ability to raise the needed "inputs."
Please contact us for further information about Asora Education Enterprises many ongoing efforts, including these guidebooks and our plans in other areas.
