“They practice all week after school, investing 4 to 5 hours
in addition to the time they spent in the classroom, and that is impossible to achieve with regular
homework.”

they do.”

ABOUT O-S FOUNDER
Operation Success is the brainchild of Puerto Rican filmmaker Noel Quiñones, writer and director
of Flight of Fancy, an award winning film with Talisa Soto and Dean Cain in the lead roles.
Selected as Best Picture at the Renaissance City Film Festival in Rhode Island, it was also
recognized as Best Latin Film at the Hollywood International Film Festival.
Shortly after the Flight of Fancy premiere, the Puerto Rico Department of Education invited Noel to
return to his homeland and share his vision and professional skills with students in the rural public
high schools.
A tour of the schools intended to provide the necessary insight for his work, left him overwhelmed.
Everywhere he witnessed boredom in the classroom, conflicts between students and teachers, a
lack of commitment to education on the part of the students, an alarming rate of absenteeism and
low motivation in students as well as teachers.
The new awareness spurred Noel to turn towards a new objective: he would strive to contribute a
way to overcome this troubling situation.
