Leadership Matters With CLMitchell
05/29/2026
This is why we must start early.
Not in high school.
Not in middle school.
In elementary school.
According to recent data from the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board, more than two-thirds of students went on to college after high school — but only about 42% completed a degree or credential within six years.
The challenge is not just college access.
It is preparation, literacy, confidence, identity, and long-term support.
Research continues to show that educational attainment directly impacts life outcomes. In Tarrant County, a young adult with only a high school diploma stands just a 14% chance of earning a living wage, compared to 48% for those with a bachelor’s degree.
At Eagleview Leadership Academy, we believe the work begins in elementary.
Strong literacy.
Strong math foundations.
Leadership development.
Identity and character building.
Students learning how to think, communicate, lead, and persist early.
We are not just preparing students to pass tests.
We are preparing them to persist through life, college, career, and leadership.
Starting small matters because the foundation matters.
