The Knights’ Success Lab is a free before and after school program designed to support students and provide unique experiences that will complement their regular school day — whether it be learning a new and exciting skill or getting assistance with concepts they might need more time to figure out. The program is also designed to engage families in their children’s education in a meaningful way. The Knights' Success Lab is made possible through a 21st Century Community Learning Center grant.

Our vision is to unleash the potential of students through enrichment, academic support, and family engagement. Our mission is the following: The Knight’s Success Lab exists to provide enrichment and support opportunities to students and families to improve academic performance, increase engagement in learning, and the discovery of future passions so that students experience positive momentum on their journey to their full potential.
