SUCCESS & INNOVATION CENTER at MT BLUE CAMPUS 

THREE KEY PURPOSES 

  • Academic, social-emotional, and post-secondary coaching for students
  • Instructional and professional coaching for faculty and staff
  • Fostering access to 21st century learning and teaching opportunities for all members of the Mt Blue Campus community

MISSION

The Success and Innovation Center exists to provide a human-centered, empathy-driven problem solving studio for all students, faculty and staff of Mt Blue Campus.  Much as the library supports open access to information, the SIC supports open access to multiple pathways for achieving one’s academic, social-emotional and professional aspirations.  Through a balance of coaching, advocacy, and outreach, the SIC empowers Mt Blue Campus students to discover and create solutions to the challenges they face, while building capacity of faculty and staff to provide increasingly effective and innovative instruction.  As a result of the SIC, students and staff at Mt Blue Campus become more resilient problem solvers, more resourceful critical thinkers, and more capable contributors to a 21st century world of work.  

ROLE of the DIRECTOR

The Success and Innovation Center (SIC) Director collaborates with students and faculty:

  • To identify needs and design solutions to meet those needs
  • To demonstrate content area standards and habits of work
  • To facilitate connections to resources throughout the school and greater Mt Blue communities
  • To provide support and advocacy for non-traditional pathways to high school graduation and post-secondary opportunities. 

The number of students who graduate high school on time and engage in post-secondary opportunities should increase as a result of the efforts of the SIC Director

ROLE of the ED TECH

  • To manage the day to day operations of the physical Success & Innovation Center including student usage, learning materials, and space organization
  • To provide social-emotional support and learning for students who are struggling to maintain successful pathways at Mt Blue Campus 
  • To manage and collate data related to the use of the Success & Innovation Center
  • To assist the SIC Director in achieving the defined purposes and mission of the Success & Innovation Center
