Project Description:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The pre-teen center will serve girls between the ages of 8-12 that have identifiable risk factors causing their inability to perform academically and socially in their current schools.  We will receive referrals from the neighboring schools, many of which have received a failing grade and who have a high concentration of you and families at-risk.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Measurable Outcome Anticipated:

 

 

 

 

 

A minimum of 80% of all youth participating in the project will increase their academic functioning as evidenced in promotion to the next grade level or increased scores in standardized testing such as the FCAT.  A minimum of 90% of all youth who have not committed a crime prior to enrollment shall not be adjudicated or have adjudication withheld with on eyear following transition.
