In-School Program

The In-School Program provides academic enrichment activities, work-readiness skills, project based learning, life skills and leadership development.  The goal of the program is to help prepare District youth to successfully transition from high school into post-secondary education, advanced training, unsubsidized employment, or a career in the military. During the school year, youth ages 14 to 18 will have the opportunity to participate in the In-School Program.  To be eligible, youth must be a District resident and in grades 9 through 12. In-School Program participants will remain in this program until graduating from high school and will receive follow up services.

The application process includes submitting all required eligibility documents and completing the CASAS assessment.
