Senari Programs was founded in 1981 by Mrs. Micki Fitzpatrick in
an effort to individualize education through technology. Senari
has designed and developed curriculum-based interactive software
for both the school and retail markets. Senari offers wide range
of educational software -- interactive programs, print materials,
and manipulatives -- as well as providing educational workshops
and consulting services throughout the country.
This site can help all educators -- homeschoolers, teachers, and
parents -- who are looking for curriculum information and solid
educational content in materials designed to help students learn
and work independently. Appropriate curriculum and resources for
students and/or children can be found throughout the site. Check
the links on the left to find descriptions of our interactive software,
worksheet generators, and print materials by subject areas.

Voyages in English, a series of English textbooks, published by
Loyola University Press, was our first major venture into educational
software development. In 1983, the software we developed to accompany
the Voyages textbooks (Grades 3-8) was published.
Although Voyages in English is now out of print, these textbooks
which provide a solid foundation in grammar are available from Follett
Educational Services at www.fes.follett.com

In addition to creating software, Senari has experienced significant
success through our consultation work with organizations such as
P.A.R.K. (Positive Atmosphere Reaches Kids). We also offer workshops
to assist in the use of Senari's products and teaching concepts.
