Broward County Public Schools (BCPS) is getting ready to welcome students to its new Saturday tutoring program, Success Saturdays, which aims to help keep students on track for their academic goals and graduation.
Success Saturdays will be hosted at 33 District school sites. Instruction will be offered by certified BCPS teachers with small class sizes.

Eligible students and their parents will receive additional information on how to register through BCPS Virtual Counselor.
Success Saturdays will kick off on November 12, 2022, with tutoring sessions taking place through April 2023. The deadline to register is Wednesday, November 2.
