  1. GRADS at Career Prep High School February 2012

  2. As the alternative school for CCSD, Career Prep High School offers students who otherwise may not graduate high school a different environment. This chart shows the distribution of Career Prep High School senior class of 2012 by the year they first entered high school. Only 27% (11 students) are graduating after 4 years of high school (2008-2009). The largest percentage of our students (34%) are graduating high school after 5 years. Two students are graduating after only 3 years of high school. The remainder (14 students) first enrolled in high school 6, 7, or 8 years ago. The chart on the next slide may explain why Career Prep students are taking more than the traditional 4 years to graduate high school.

  12. I came to Career Prep because I wanted to finish high school and get my diploma. I want to get a degree in Early Childhood. I plan on taking some online classes next year. I will work until November when my twins are due, then stay home for a while with my children. CP helped me get my diploma. The daycare has been a really big help. It made it possible for me to finish school. Other students that need help with day care should come to CP. They will help you earn your credits.
