The Ready for Success (RFS) program was developed based on the original Student Success Skills program (SSS; grades 4-10) with its focus on building students’ cognitive, social and self-management skills. The RFS program supports student mental health and academic achievement through the use of developmentally appropriate vocabulary, graphics, and activities that help to build these critical skills. Over 30 published studies on the SSS K-12 suite of programs consistently demonstrate improved student academic achievement as well as a host of social and emotional variables. Two recent RFS studies found student improvement in the areas of self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, relationship skills, and responsible decision-making skills and overall social-emotional competence. In addition to, improved student coping skills, listening, and positive, supportive relationships. Research indicates grades 2-3 are critical years for students’ academic and social- emotional development and students who demonstrate competence in self-awareness, social-awareness, self-management, relationship skills, and responsible decision-making are more likely to experience academic success. The RFS classroom program promotes student success by targeting skills in all five of these SEL areas. Attendees will learn about the research base and components involved in the RFS program, participate in activities to gain practice on how to facilitate lessons with students, and gain knowledge about data that can be gathered to determine the program's effectiveness. ![]()
