PACE Personal Alternative Choices in Education

6064 Slab Landing Rd
Cope, SC 29038 803.533.1783

The PACE program is designed to meet the needs of students who are not finding success in the regular classroom by offering alternative pathways for graduation. It targets those students who are at a high risk of dropping out of regular school due to such things as attendance, pregnancy, poor performance, problems at home, the need to work, and loss of credits due to transfers. The program gives hope to students and parents who have been struggling with "the school issue". It gives students, administrators, parents, and teachers another safety net to catch students before they become a statistic. It has proven results to push students forward and gives them an obtainable goal which most at-risk students have lost.

Bath County Graduation Success Academy

*

645 Chenault Drive Owingsville, KY 40360 606.674.2788

The Bath County Graduation Success Academy, GSA, is a program developed by Superintendent, DPP, and the Bath County Board of Education. The program was developed to target at-risk students in the Bath County School District in grades 7-12. In the 2007-08 school year Bath County had upwards of 30 students that dropped out of high school. To combat this problem, the GSA was implemented with the hard work of the staff, and has had a successful year. The program is designed to service 30 students; 15 from the middle school level and 15 from the high school level. There is an application process that is presented to the Admissions Committee. Through the GSA, 9 students graduated from high school this year. All the students who were able to graduate were faced with serious personal obstacles. Thanks to their hard work and the hard work of the faculty of the GSA, they were able to overcome those challenges to become successful. The school is staffed with one dedicated principal and 2 wonderful classroom teachers.
