About Us
At Avenues of Excellence, we believe that exemplary behavior is the cornerstone of academic and personal success. While today’s youth have access to more resources than ever before, many still face challenges that hinder their ability to reach their full potential. Through our programs, we are dedicated to shifting this paradigm—equipping young people with the character, discipline, and social refinement they need to excel in school, in leadership, and in life.
Established in 2009, Avenues of Excellence has delivered premier etiquette, protocol, and advanced social decorum training to youth and adults worldwide. In 2016, building on years of expertise, we launched the Red Carpet Girl® Mentoring Program—a community-based, modern-day finishing school created for a league of extraordinary young ladies. Serving middle and high school girls, this signature initiative prepares
participants to thrive in elevated environments, embrace leadership roles, and carry themselves with confidence, grace, and integrity.

Our Story
Get to Know Us
Founded under Avenues of Excellence, Red Carpet Girl® was created to address a critical need: preparing teen girls during their formative middle and high school years to thrive in elevated environments and future leadership roles.
Our program is multi-faceted, offering two core pathways of engagement:
Short-Term Community-Based Programs (4–12 Weeks):
Delivered in partnership with schools, foster care services, and community organizations, these sessions provide concentrated exposure to social, educational, and leadership skills. Typically offered during afterschool hours with select experience-based weekend sessions, they give girls practical tools to build confidence and character. Although the duration is short, each program is filled with life and developmental lessons designed to create lasting cognitive and behavioral impact. To reinforce progress, we incorporate pre- and post-program assessments along with parent and guardian support sessions, emphasizing the vital connection between a healthy home and a healthy child.
Signature Long-Term Program:
Our hallmark initiative, this program identifies girls in middle and high school and continues with them all the way through graduation. As close to a modern-day finishing school as one will find, it provides extensive, wraparound support services that nurture academic, social, and personal development. The program meets twice monthly—virtually and in person—supplemented by periodic weekend enrichment sessions. Because of its depth and duration, participation requires a clear commitment from parents or guardians, ensuring alignment between the program’s goals and the support system at home. Open enrollment occurs annually.
Beyond these sessions, every participant benefits from transformative opportunities such as cultural outings, professional workshops, and leadership forums. Each year, select girls are invited to attend an international summer camp, giving them access to global educational and cultural experiences that broaden their perspectives and inspire them to pursue leadership on a worldwide stage.
What sets Red Carpet Girl® apart is our unwavering insistence on excellence with accountability. Every mentee must maintain strong academic performance and exemplary behavior, reinforcing the principle that true success begins with integrity and discipline. With the collaboration of families, schools, and community partners, we ensure that each girl steps into adulthood prepared, poised, and powerful.
"At Red Carpet Girl® Mentoring Program, we believe every young woman deserves to walk in confidence, lead with purpose, and leave a legacy of excellence."
