“The idea of a college prep school, what we've learned is I'm glad that our need isn't Holy Cross College Prep Academy. What we're learning is we're not focused on college. It can't be just college prep, has to be career and life prep. We're still a preparatory academy, but preparing you for everything.”

Why do students struggle? I'd argue that they lack access to quality instruction, but think about it. That's totally out of their control. What if there was something we could teach kids there was something within their control that would help them be successful in every class? It's not a magic pill or a figment of your imagination.
