The Bridge to Student Success (BtSS) program is a support system for students and families that focuses on improving the consistency, quantity and quality of coursework and assignments submissions. The Bridge to Student Success program can be a long and short term support service depending on the needs of the student.

The program is monitored by Academic Advisors who work together with students, classroom teachers, guidance counselors, and the principal.

An Academic Advisor will be assigned to designated students to create a personalized learning support plan for the child. One of the first things that will take place is a phone call to help students and parents be more organized. We will show you where to find email, how to check for assignments and school reminders.

Students in the Bridge to Student Success program (BtSS) will learn how to reach out to their  teachers and guidance counselor. Students will also learn time management skills and how to communicate any concerns with the support of the Academic Advisor.
