Show Up Strong
Strengthen Student Success in AP/Honors Pathways
The missing support layer that turns your AP/Honors students from “surviving the pressure” to “showing up strong” — fully FEFP-fundable and zero extra work for your team.
Show Up Strong
Strengthen Student Success in AP/Honors Pathways
Show Up Strong reinforces the qualities schools aim to develop through frameworks such as the IB Learner Profile and FranklinCovey’s Leader in Me, helping students practice these attributes through everyday academic moments.
For Florida schools, Show Up Strong is eligible for funding through FEFP Academic Acceleration and related student support allocations.
The Pressure Inside Accelerated Programs
Across AP, Honors, and accelerated programs, schools are seeing a growing pattern. High-achieving students face intense academic pressure.
Constant anxiety and pressure to perform — feeling like every test, assignment, and grade matters for their future.
Overwhelming workload — managing multiple demanding classes at the same time, often with major assignments due at the same time.
Fear of asking for help — worrying that needing help means they’re not as capable as others.
Comparison with high-achieving peers — feeling like everyone else is doing better or handling the pressure more easily.
Falling behind and feeling buried — once one assignment slips, everything starts to pile up and stress compounds.
Students are expected to persist through these challenges, often without structured opportunities to develop the habits and awareness needed to navigate them.
Strengthens How Students Show Up
Show Up Strong is a 21-day behavioral practice that helps students develop the self-management skills needed to succeed in rigorous academic environments.
Rather than adding curriculum or teacher workload, the program introduces a brief daily practice that fits into students’ routines. In just a few minutes each day, students engage in guided reflection and short micro-lessons that help them navigate common pressures such as stress, workload, focus, and participation. These daily moments build the awareness and decision-making skills that support persistence, engagement, and resilience.
The practice takes 4–5 minutes per day, yet over 21 days it strengthens the core capacities schools aim to develop in high-performing learners.
Delivered through a structured app-based experience, Show Up Strong requires minimal implementation time while giving schools meaningful insight into student engagement and growth.

Recommendations
We have utilized the Gamechangers platform twice over the past three years at our school. It is an excellent way to build on school culture and improve moral. Last year our school grade improved and I firmly believe that this program was one of the components that supported our improvement efforts.
The Gamechanger Challenge overwhelmingly produced many of the results we were looking for in strengthening our goals and priorities. Without hesitation, I strongly recommend Gamechangers as all organizations can positively benefit from these initiatives.
Show up strong.
Small daily actions practiced together
until a stronger way of showing up becomes normal.
