In the fall of 2000 the Flandreau Indian School began a reform effort called Success Academy, aimed at preparing all of its students for post-secondary education. Throughout all aspects of Success Academy programming, students' American Indian identities are affirmed, honored and incorporated into school culture. Ethnicity matters in each and every aspect of Success Academy.
