Pyramid of
SUCCESS
Three Rivers School District
Intervention and Enrichment
A Matter of Will
• “Great schools are not a matter of
circumstance. Great schools are a matter of
will.”
“From Good To Great”-Jim Collins
Change
• “The only person who likes
change is a baby with a wet
diaper.”

Why Do We Need To Change?
• Increased amount of Incompletes and raised bar with
Proficiency Based Grading
• Teachers contract- constraints, doing more with less
• Increased requirements for graduation
• Students need increased support at the HS level- transition
issues
• Approximately 38% of our students at IVHS are behind in
credits (41% of our Sophomores)
• IVHS Graduation rate is 71%
• Approximately 30% of our freshman at HVHS are not on track
to graduate.
• HVHS Graduation rate is 70%
