Making A Difference — One Student at a Time

 

We provide specialized instruction and community-based programs for youth who may fall through the cracks in the regular public education system — juvenile offenders, expelled and truant students and others at risk of dropping out. Our focus is on creating supportive learning environments where students can achieve academic, behavior and career goals.
