Supportive Services
Tutoring Services:
Tutoring services are provided during the postpartum period of recovery for teen moms. This is a vital service which allows students to earn credit during the semester their child is born.
Parenting Education:
Parenting Education is delivered through group format, as well as individual instruction. Teen parents are encouraged to take the Human Growth and Development class through the Family/Consumer Studies department at Sweet Home High School.
Individual Support:
Teen Parents meet regularly with the Teen Parent Coordinator/School Counselors to ensure that their needs at school are being met. Referrals for agency and community support are offered.
