Discovery Point Franchise 2014 Owners’ Summit Awards

At the start of each new year, Discovery Point owners across the southeast join together for a time of celebration to recognize the achievements throughout the previous year. During what is known as the “Owners’ Summit”, franchise owners have the opportunity to share their ideas for growth and improvement in the future and be honored for the strides their individual locations have made.

At this year’s 2014 Owners’ Summit, many owners and leaders within the franchise were recognized for their dedication and commitment to excellence in all aspects of their Discovery Point learning centers. Take a look at some of our most prestigious awards and the chosen recipients for 2014.
