Abstract | Project Outreach, funded under Title VIII of Public Law 90-247, is a comprehensive five year program to introduce basic and widespread changes in Sheridan School District organization, curriculum offerings, pupil services, and teacher training. Project Outreach will bring about a complete transformation of the present Sheridan Public Schools. By concentrating on meeting the total needs of all students, most specifically alienated youth who are potential dropouts and youth who have already rejected school, Project Outreach will demonstrate, develop, and disseminate a new system that will provide relevant and meaningful educational experiences. The third program year will place special focus on: integration of Project Outreach activities and concepts with the permanent school system and personal capability development of administrators, School Board members, faculty, and community group members representing the entire school system. Students who possess a high potential for dropping out of school prior to graduation will be recruited by the Outreach Center. Students who have already dropped out will also be recruited. Parents will be counseled to obtain their cooperation and permission in such a placement. The Outreach Center program will expand its recreational and enrichment activities to include all Sheridan secondary school students. (Author/JM) |
