ACHIEVE

Cap and Diploma

ACHIEVE  is NEISD’s credit recovery program that focuses on helping students who are behind in their credits, who are at risk of dropping out or who are discouraged and are thinking of leaving school.   ACHIEVE offers hope.

ACHIEVE helps students who are committed to their education to recover necessary credits in the areas of English, Math, Social Studies, Science and Health. Eligible courses are those previously attempted without success.  The results of earning back those credits include being promoted to the appropriate grade level, getting back “on track”, and graduating on time.

To qualify for ACHIEVE, a student must complete the application, schedule an interview and complete the interview at the scheduled time.  Students will need to take responsibility for why they are behind in their credits and commit to an individualized academic plan.  Students must also be passing all of the classes in which they are enrolled, be attending all of their classes, and making good choices, thus staying out of the disciplinary process.

Once in the program, continued excellence is expected. All ACHIEVE students will continue to maintain passing grades in all classes, exhibit  respectful behavior on the Madison campus, and continue to make good behavioral choices.  The ACHIEVE Coordinator will have weekly conferences with each student regarding grades, attendance and discipline.

Applications for ACHIEVE can be obtained in each of the following locations:  Counseling Office, Curriculum AP Office, AP Office and the ACHIEVE Room, C 26.  Please go by before or after school or during lunch to obtain an application. 

The students in ACHIEVE receive support from their counselors, administrators, classroom teachers, and the ACHIEVE Team.
