The 90 Day Challenge

Recognition + Reward = Retention

1. How do you recognize a “good” student?

2. How do you recognize a “bad” student?

3. How do you reward a “good” student?

• We want to retain the student, and advance them through the program.

• Retaining is meeting expectations, advancing is exceeding the expectations.

• 90 Day Retention does not stop at the 90 Day Mark. Nor does it start or stop with one department.

How many times does 90 days occur in a year?

Recognize the past. Relate to the person. Respect the person.

Restore their life.

• Recognize the past is in the past...

• Speak to their future NOW , not the past THEN.

• Only speak to the past as a reference point for their future , not a rehearsal of the past.

• Notice the past, not their past... We cannot place ownership on something or someone in has passed.

• Relate to the person they were..

• Relate to the person they are...

• Relate to and congratulate the person they are becoming...

• Respect the person they were..

• Respect the person they are...

• Respect the person they are becoming...

Restore their life.

• We don't have control over students.

• We are "SET" in authoritative positions to influence them to "BECOME" better to do better. Become then do.

• We do not think for the student, we teach them what to think about and how to BECOME better thinkers.

Students are customers.

• Students are customers and are always right in their own eyes. And they are!

• According to their train of thought.

We are supervisors..

• We are responsible for overseeing their lives.

• We are to “EMPOWER” not “OVERPOWER.”

• If you knew how many lives you were responsible for, you would become more responsible.
