ABOUT US
Who we are, What is "Good", and Why we Excist
We are led by a team of students, educators, psychologists, and researchers – all working toward helping students thrive now and in the future.
The term "Good" comes from Harvard University's scientist Howard Gardner and his colleagues, who define "good" as being ethical, excellent, and engaging.
The Good Student was founded to address the challenges that young people face. These include increase in mental health challenges, limited social support, lack of access to resources, and the desire and option for confidentiality when seeking support.
This survey and its resources address these challenges.
The survey is based on student input, empirical research, and educator feedback.
