Creating Successful Kids
      ... creates Successful Parents


 A generational issue lurks below
 the graduation rates waterline

Picture
Under the Numbers Iceberg
Although graduation rates appear to be  improving, the real issue is that poor performance is inherited:  children of less-successful parents typically under-achieve. 
They age into their parenting years ill-equipped and under-resourced to provide the support necessary to foster their own children's success. The cycle repeats.

Put another way: children of academically successful parents typically perform substantially better than their peers. We all know this.

A Clear Goal
85 in '25 

Achieve 85% completion for first-to-graduate students by 2025

VISION
Academic achievement for the children of parents that did not successfully complete High School is alarmingly poor.  California, for example,  has drop-out rates for this group in the upper quartile for the country - and our national rates are some 20% lower than international competitors, so even better-performing states have quite a way to go. 
Break the cycle of low academic outcomes permanently in a single generation. 
When under-helped kids receive the type of support that effective parents provide, they maximize their educational potential and acquire the six skills that equip them to best support their future family. Success begets success.
Improve attainment rates so that the average and median converge and future performance is inherited.
It will take one decade. By raising expectations, confidence and capability outcomes increase consistently over a ten year period building a success-seeking generation of parents that will provide the environment, attitude and assistance to ensure their own kids' repeat the process.
