How can I be a successful high school student?

Success Prep gives rising freshmen the opportunity to have a “fresh start.” Over the course of four consecutive Saturdays, students and parents receive information regarding the academic, behavioral and social expectations of a successful high school student.

With post-secondary education as the goal, participants learn the importance of their grade point average, developing solid study habits, seeking the support of guidance counselors, addressing the issues of peer pressure and ultimately preventing adverse actions which impact their path to Indianapolis Youth Development achievement. This program also features a college campus visit!
