American students are academically toe-to-toe with students from other developed nations until the fifth grade. Once American students hit middle school, their scores can begin to slip due to a variety of academic, emotional, and social issues. LifeBound has developed a transition program based on our bestselling book Success in Middle School that helps students deal with these challenges.

43 percent of middle schools cite bullying as one of the most frequently reported discipline problems. (Source: bullyingstatistics.org)

LifeBound books and resources target the subjects of bullying and developing a sense of compassion to ease the transition into middle school. Other key topics include time management, organization skills, and healthy peer choices.
