THRIVE! is a comprehensive district-wide initiative that recognizes, celebrates, and captures the stories of students who are an inspiration to their fellow students, faculty, staff, and the community. Students whose journeys convey resilience and fortitude of character are the focus of THRIVE. THRIVE celebrates students wherever they are in their academic and personal paths and aims to empower students to succeed in college and beyond —even when barriers seem insurmountable.
