We believe the DreamRoads program will have the following results:

​

Personal Development

Students take responsibility for their own learning; they become more proactive in managing their path to success

• Improved self-understanding

• Improved positive self-concept

• Improved confidence in relationships and available resources

• Develop life-long skills used continuously to assess

  • Who Am I?

  • What Do I Want My Life To Be?

  • What Do I Need To Do To Get There?

• Become intentional students​​

​

School Relevance

Students understand the connection between what they’re learning---both in and out of school--- and their path to their desired future

• See school as an “investment” and not a “chore”----a powerful paradigm shift

• Increased persistence

  • When students see the connection between particular content and themselves it makes it more likely they will persist through tedious work when required

• Specific goals are routinely set and accomplished

 

School Success

Students are more likely to go, and to complete school when they see it as meaningful to them and their future

• Increased intrinsic motivation---the kind required for true learning to occur

• Increased school attendance and graduation rates

• Increased credit completion and better GPAs

  • Students are in classes that better match their goals, interests, and cognitive strengths thus they are more likely to succeed

• Increased engagement 

  • No matter how uninteresting or boring content may seem, once students have determined that the content is worth knowing it will hold their attention and

             engage them
