Abstract
This article examines the implementation of a holistic, student-centered framework known as TEAM Student at Lee Roy Myers Middle School. Through intentional relationship-building, mentorship, family engagement, and targeted academic support, the school has increased student success and community involvement. The model’s effectiveness is demonstrated through improved behavioral and academic data, enhanced parent-school communication, and a strengthened school culture rooted in empathy and inclusion. This journal article focuses on the Home and Head Strands of NYAR’s goals.
