  5. IFAC PROGRAM’S GOALS AND OBJECTIVES FOR 2008-2009 • To increase the academic success of freshmen in the high schools that are served. • To engage students in exploring academic and career opportunities. • To develop a plan with those targeted students to earn their high school diploma through credit recovery.
