to interact with kids without bells or lesson time constraints. At

Success, our Relationship managers are treated the same as

teachers, and they have time to actually do what they became

educators for to make a difference in kids’ lives. Our small

caseloads (⅓ of the kids teachers have in traditional schools)

allow the time for relationships and enhanced learning. Imagine

supporting students who are CHOOSING to attend and want to

earn their high school diploma. It’s a refreshing change and one

that our staff love.The primary function of the on-site virtual education

Relationship Manager/ ParaPro is to foster learning for all students enrolled at that location. The Relationship Manager’s

job is to develop meaningful relationships with Success students

and motivate all students to be successful in their coursework.
