South Dakota State University-Flandreau Indian School Success Academy: "Where All Students Are Honored Students"
The South Dakota State University-Flandreau Indian School Success Academy is an early and intensive college preparatory program for Native American high school students. Success Academy began in the SDSU College of Engineering eight years ago, and since then has expanded to involve the entire university. Success Academy exposes students not only to college, but also to the careers open to college graduates. The program emphasizes career areas identified by tribal leaders as being of critical need in their communities, for example, engineering, agriculture, education, pharmacy, nursing, journalism and nutrition.
Success Academy has two goals. The first is to help more American Indian students prepare for and succeed in college. The second is to make South Dakota State University into the kind of place where that can happen.
