The overall goal is to help students achieve success with academic content. (per page 5 of the manual) I have to add that the goal is broader and deeper than helping students and the success being purely academic. The students are people – future parents and business owners, and the success might manifest itself in academics right now, but we are helping to train habits of self-discipline that will allow these people to be successful in life. One never outgrows the need for good organization, good time management; nor the need to know oneself or to know what activities are effective for learning and how to self evaluate for equal or greater success in the future.
