This document discusses strategies for retaining students in a 90 day challenge program. It emphasizes recognizing and rewarding good student performance while respecting students. Key points include retaining students by meeting expectations and advancing them by exceeding expectations. Recognizing past performance but focusing on the present and future is important. Relating to students as individuals and respecting who they currently are and who they are becoming also helps retention. The overall goal is to restore students' lives by empowering rather than overpowering them.

1. The 90 Day Challenge
Recognition + Reward = Retention

2. 1. How do you recognize a “good” student?
2. How do you recognize a “bad” student?
3. How do you reward a “good” student?

3. • 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.

4. How many times does 90 days occur in a
year?

5. Recognize the past.
Relate to the person.
Respect the person.
Restore their life.

6. • 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.

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

8. • Respect the person they were..
• Respect the person they are...
• Respect the person they are becoming...

9. 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.

10. Students are customers.
• Students are customers and are always
right in their own eyes. And they are!
• According to their train of thought.

11. 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.
