Overview

BRICK Education Network separates the core responsibilities of running a school day-to-day into three primary functions: Instruction, Operations, and Social Emotional Learning (SEL).

BRICK Road to Success (BRtS) is a two-generation internal Multi-tiered System of Supports (MTSS) that promotes stability and success in the five life domains: family, education, housing, health and economic mobility.

As part of the school's Ubuntu Culture and Social-Emotional Learning program, BRICK Road to Success proactively promotes success in a student's academic and social-emotional journey by leveraging their assets, removing barriers to resources and identifying opportunities for development and growth.
