Kids on the Move for Success realizes the importance of reading and vocabulary in the sTEAM curriculum. Many seniors have the time and interest to work with young students to improve their reading skills. We have created a program that matches a student with a senior in elementary schools.

Student are an important part of student safety and their voices need to be heard. In a Town Hall format, Kids on the Move for Success brings together school leaderships, law enforcement, business leaders and other community organizations to collaborate with students to find real solutions. Town Halls include both student and adult panels, as well as smaller breakout sessions.

Town Halls are only the starting point of the conversation. Follow-up meetings in the form of Continuing the Conversation detail the specific solutions that were purposed in the Town Hall Meetings.
