Desmond Family Success Center

Guided by the Marist Brothers of the Schools, the Desmond Family Success Center serves as a cross-area initiative that meets the ever growing needs of our diverse student body. Our mission is to cater to the whole student through all-inclusive wraparound services, which equip our students with the necessary skills, resources, and support to become young men of character in the classroom and the community.

The center offers a comprehensive range of services that enrich students’ academic, personal, and social development, including:

  • Tutoring and Academic Support
  • Leadership Workshops
  • Service Learning Opportunities

Beyond academics, we provide opportunities to cultivate social skills and foster personal growth:

  • Enrichment opportunities
  • Guest speakers.
  • Campus Ministry retreats and involvement.
  • Participation in clubs, sports, and community interaction.
  • Service Learning experiences exclusive to center members, encouraging students to act as agents of justice and service.

We believe in nurturing spirit-filled members of family and community, emphasizing resilience, self-confidence, and a commitment to service.

Whether it’s developing learning strategies, honing communication skills, or preparing for life after high school, we are here to guide and inspire students every step of the way.
