KICKSTART KIDS is a nonprofit organization dedicated to giving middle school students the tools and support necessary to resolve conflicts, avoid participating in gangs, choose a drug-free lifestyle, resist negative peer pressure, remain in school until they graduate, while achieving a higher level of academic success and ultimately becoming productive members of our communities.

Navarro Middle School's award-winning karate program competes locally, statewide and nationally. The karate elective utilizes a values curriculum though a partnership with KICKSTART KIDS building on the traditional martial arts emphasis on respect and discipline.
