“Newport School District transforms post-graduation preparation programs to meet the needs of the students and community.”
Newport School District wanted to improve the transition programing for all students with IEPs, the Transition Discoveries grant abled the district to engage with parents, students, community and agencies to develop and provide the support needed to implement the plan. This was parent/student and community driven action plan starting this summer with a Learn and Earn program through PA CareerLink. It will continue to develop employability skill programs, connection with community agencies, businesses, and in-house industry credentials, all geared towards making sure our students when they graduate have many resources available.
