Good Defined

       The definition we use comes from Harvard University's Professor Emeritus Howard Gardner and his colleagues. It is engaging, ethical, and excellent. The Good Student emphasizes these three comments in its approach to supporting students and schools, helping foster the development of good students. 

Our Vision

To support young people in their journey to be engaging, ethical, and excellent students who attain and cultivate for themselves and others academic achievement, health, safety, and civic & climate change heroism. 

Our Mission

To provide all students in the US and abroad with the Student Success Survey (S3), which measures and strengthens students on the key indicators and predictors of well-being, education success, and effective community engagement.

STUDENT SUCCESS SURVEY
​(S3)

The current state of society:
  • One in five high school students suffer from depression
  • 75% of all mental health issues arise by the age of 24
  • Only 59% of college students complete a four-year degree in six years​
  • Women, minorities, first-generation and other groups still face unique challenges 
  • Many students haven't discovered their eco self-efficacy to address the greatest challenge to human society, namely climate change

​The Student Success Survey (S3) was developed in response to the needs of students and schools. S3 is an evidence-informed questionnaire that can be immediately and easily administered for any school size. 

By gauging students in the key influences on well-being and school success, we are able to strengthen each area. 

As a result, S3 can support all schools' aims of increasing academic achievement, well-being, retention, school persistence, prevention of on campus and off campus violence, and addressing climate change.

Eco-Heroes​

Heroism is taking a personal risk for the common good while others remain inactive or non-responsive, according to Phil Zimbardo, Founder & President of the Heroic Imagination Project and who conducted the Stanford Prison Experiment (1971).

​Today one of the greatest challenges facing humanity is climate change. Our goal is to fuse into the concept of "a good student" the characteristics of an "eco-hero," a person who is willing to sacrifice and defend the world from the 
threat of climate change. 

​We partner with organizations to facilitate this at schools and programs internationally and across the country. Learn more about this work by using the contact tab above.
