The Center for Student Success (CSS) is a drop‑in academic support program located in the Wellesley High School Library that provides students with individualized assistance to help them achieve academic success. Students accessing CSS receive one‑on‑one support in areas such as executive functioning, long‑term planning, prioritizing academic responsibilities, organization, and study skills. The CSS schedule is available in all house offices and through the QR code that includes all academic lab and help center schedules.

The CSS Educator plays a critical role in supporting students by providing individualized academic coaching and intervention designed to meet learners where they are academically, socially, and emotionally.

• Collaborate with teachers, counselors, administrators, and support staff to identify student needs and implement appropriate interventions.
• Create a welcoming, flexible, and supportive environment that encourages students to seek assistance proactively.
• Help students develop self‑advocacy skills and independence in managing their academic responsibilities.

• Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple student needs, schedules, and follow‑up responsibilities effectively.
• Ability to work collaboratively as part of a team and build productive relationships with staff, students, and families.
• Strong listening skills with the ability to understand student concerns and respond thoughtfully.
• Effective problem‑solving skills to help students overcome academic challenges and barriers to success.
