A letter from Cordell Schools about upcoming pilot program

Cordell Public School will begin a Board approved pilot program called, “Raising Highly Capable Kids.” It’s a program with over a decade of proven success for lowering at risk factors that sabotage students. The nonprofit program introduces parents to 40 assets to over 13 weeks. The more assets a family practices the more students benefit. The program has been transforming communities all across America. If it goes well we will introduce it again in fall of 2023. The program can be taught in and through churches, hospitals, court systems, schools and homes. The more participation from the community the more likely for community wide transformation.
