Type: Program Model: Year-Round college readiness program for in-school youth
Description:
The goal of the Student Success Center (SSC) project is to better coordinate college, career, and social support services within neighborhood high schools. The project takes a holistic approach to guiding students in creating a post-secondary plan and providing corresponding services and resources to help them to achieve their educational goals. The work is organized around two main outcomes: college and career readiness and college and career transitions.
The menu of services offered by each SSC focus on five primary areas:
- College preparation and awareness
- Career exploration and exposure
- Academic supports
- Leadership development
- Social support
Each Center is located in a dedicated space within its school and provides services that are intended to support the schools in increasing the number of students who graduate from high school, enroll in post-secondary institutions and/or occupational skill programs, and successfully enter the world of work following high school.
