"8 to Great is the missing piece in American education today!"

- Steve Shiever, Superintendent of the Year, Oklahoma

School Districts using 8 to Great as their Social Emotional Learning ( SEL ) Program have shown immediate results including:

Significant decrease in student bullying activity
Improved academic achievement
Improved graduation rates
Fewer office referrals
Lower drug use
Decrease in student suicide rate
Improved faculty morale

When 1,000 superintendents and high school principals were asked, "If you could only teach 3 things to students to help them be successful in life, which 3 things would be the most important?"

They answered:

Self Confidence / Self Respect
Respect for Others / Compassion
Responsibility / No Excuses

Author MK Mueller's 8 to Great life skills curriculum and video course address all of the above.

Through 8 to Great you'll discover how to:

Create a culture of respect and responsibility
Teach students how to handle strong emotions
Demonstrate communication skills for candid and courageous conversations
Foster hope and resilience through success stories and dream boards
Give students a simple and proven decision-making formula

"This 8 to Great Video Series is a wonderful systematic approach for social emotional learning that will empower your students and staff."

- Dr. David Geurin, Principal and Lead Learner

Author MK Mueller

International trainer, award-winning author and TEDx Presenter Mary Kay, “MK” Mueller spent ten years as a high school teacher and loved her job, but at the age of 34 she found herself in a domestic violence shelter.
