Student Success Plans
All Arkansas students are required to have a Student Success Plan in place by the end of 8th grade (Act 930 of 2017). Student Success Plans address these four components:
- Guides the student along pathways to graduation
- Addresses accelerated learning opportunities
- Addresses academic deficits and interventions
- Includes college and career planning components
Rogers Public Schools uses Naviance as its college and career readiness tool. Naviance offers an abundance of resources for students to explore career interests, learn more about themselves through inventories of talents, skills, and interests, prepare high school course plans, and explore post-secondary opportunities. Required tasks by grade level will be facilitated at school, but there are also many more resources that students can access on Naviance on their own to further explore options after high school.
Students will start their course plan piece of the Student Success Plan in 8th grade. Course selection is one of the most important decisions students make in high school. Students need to collaborate with their parents, counselors, and teachers to make selections that will best help them to achieve their post-secondary goals. RPS students make a 4 year high school plan in order to help guide them in their selection of courses to make sure all graduation requirements are completed and to plan out courses that are in a student's interest area for their plans after high school.
