Major success is happening at South Bend’s Success Academy at the Boys & Girls Club. The school saw one of the biggest year-over-year improvements in IREAD-3 scores in 2025 compared to other schools across the state. “As a principal, I’m always asking, ‘What did you do?’ I look at data all the time, and I’m not afraid to pick up the phone and call and say, ‘What are you doing,’” says Rhonda Myers, the principal at Success Academy at the Boys & Girls Club.
