1.
What is Graduate Support?
Answer: The Graduate Support Program
(GSP) is committed to supporting Academy Prep graduates in a myriad
of ways from middle school on to secondary school and through college.
The program will utilize its experience and knowledge of the available
resources to support and to promote students' secondary and higher
education. Moreover, the program seeks to provide students with
the most supportive and educationally stimulating environment possible.
Thus, information on the various educational options is made available
to parents and to students, which allows for a more cohesive match
between the student and the school.
GSP is a principal source of academic help, guidance and peer support.
Supervised study space with access to computers, books, and other
resources are made available to students. Assistance with financial
aid forms, SAT prep courses, high school and college visits are all
part of the program. In addition to providing assistance with studies,
the program also trains students to be accountable for their academic
progress. Moreover, the personal needs of the students are also addressed.
Reunions are held to build and maintain relationships among peers
and Academy Prep. In summation, the Graduate Support Program is essential
in the early identification and resolution of problems that could
cause a student to drop out of secondary school.
