ABOUT THE PROJECT
PROJECT EVALUATION
Nearly 98% of high school students and 94% of middle school students found going to see plays with Project Success to be valuable. In our most recent survey, two-thirds of high school students said they attended the play with their parents or guardians, with nearly half of middle school students reporting the same. More than 92% of students who attended a play said they would consider attending another play, given the chance.
