Academic Success

                                                                                                                    The Academic Success Network of the Roundtable of St. Lucie County serves to ensure academic success for all students in St. Lucie through fostering of positive and supportive relationships.

Experiencing success in school lifts self-esteem, inspires academic commitment, and instills a positive view of school.  This “experience of success” is the mission of the Roundtable’s Academic Success Network.  We work with the community to promote higher graduation rates, increase proficiency in reading and math, and keep our children in school until they graduate.

Children who are successful in school are more likely to be successful in life.  High school graduates make more money and are less likely to be  unemployed than those who did not.

 Each member is trained in Kids at Hope.  Kids at Hope in schools causes increased attendance, improved academic performance, increased self-confidence, and decreased disciplinary referrals. 

The Network recommended policy change to the School Board so that make-up work is graded at full credit instead of an automatic “F” as a result of an absence – school policy was changed.

 When our children succeed the community succeeds!
