RLS has created tutorial lessons, developed by successful Texas teachers, that are carefully designed and specifically aligned with the TEKS. Lessons are arranged in a manner which affords teachers the ability to focus on their students' most pressing needs.
RLS tutorial lessons may be used as:
-
PREPARATION for class instruction
-
REMEDIATION for students who need extra instruction
-
ENRICHMENT for students who desire advanced levels
-

Today's public school students are faced with multiple standardized tests guarding admission to higher level educational opportunities. In order to achieve a passing and higher score on such tests, a large percentage of these students have a glaring need for supplemental instructions beyond what is provided in their normal public school day.
RLS is designed to elevate the quality of tutorial services available to public school students.
What We Believe
Resolute Learning System (RLS) is a system of highly efficient tutorial services created to serve the K12 public school market. Lessons are designed to significantly increase the potential of successful performance on the STAAR Test for students who complete the prescribed tutorial programs. RLS's program of instruction is not limited to cognitive instructions, but makes active use of social, emotional, and mindset strategies as well.
It is important to note that RLS is a system of highly efficient tutorial services, as opposed to a system of teachings of academic subjects. RLS guides the student, who has already been taught the foundational skills mandated by the state, by building on that foundation in order to prepare the student to augment their performance on the test utilizing our system of in-depth blended tutorial services.
Because RLS believes students are not served well enough by isolated study methods, we prefer an instructional delivery system that is a Blended Instruction model, merged with team or cooperative learning strategies. However, this system is fully capable of being delivered through an individualized self-paced method as well.
The conceptual underpinning of the RLS instructional model is the idea that a student's academic achievement in school is influenced not only by their cognitive development, but also by their emotional, social, physical, moral, and maybe even spiritual development.
A narrow focus on mostly cognitive development, such as that provided by most school programs, ignores critical developmental needs which influence student's achievement such as their beliefs, sense of possibilities, goals, self-efficacy, and attitude regarding life and school. RLS lessons aim to promote not only, student development in these cognitive areas, but also, in important non-cognitive areas which are so vital for school success, and more importantly success in life.

3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th Grade and EOC Algebra
Students today are caught in the 3-dimensional crossfire of the “What’s”, “Why’s” and “How’s” of learning.
They need to grasp ahold of “What” needs to be learned AND retained. They need to understand “Why” is this information important to them and why do they need to know it.
Finally, they need to understand “How” to use What has been learned with Why it’s essential to help achieve the goals in from of them.
STAAR Success was formed to guide the student beyond where the classroom teacher has brought them. Teachers are laying the foundation for learning and RLS builds on that foundation and not only reinforces what the student has learned in the classroom, but also provides alternative instructional techniques to guide the student to successful application of their knowledge.
