Path to Success

About this program:

The Path to Success is a 6th-12th grade curriculum that outlines steps and activities needed for students to successfully matriculate as athletes or scholars into higher education.

It has three required elements for all PFI participants:

• Academic Preparation/tutoring
  • All participants must maintain a minimum 3.0 GPA. Those who do not meet this requirement must attend mandatory tutoring until they achieve the required 3.0 GPA.
• Financial Literacy Training (partner-provided service)
• Exposure and enrichment programming

The Accelerated Path to Success program will support ten DISD seniors and two juniors in high school who are likely to receive NIL offers within the next nine months. These participants will receive accelerated training in Financial Literacy, Sports Contracting, Personal Branding and Social Media Management in order to make them NIL-ready by May 2025. Training will include one-on-one support from legal, financial, and media professionals as well as PFI personnel and participants.
