The Urban Collaborative
seeks to intervene in the lives of at-risk young adolescents having serious
difficulty in school and placed at risk of dropping out, to help each of them
obtain the academic and social skills necessary for success in high school and
in life. We strive to create a
supportive community that will motivate students with a coherent, relevant, and
challenging academic program. We
stress the importance of taking responsibility, working hard, achieving at a
high level, setting goals, taking risks, and having fun.
