The primary goal of Talent Search is to offer a continuum of activities, information and services to enable low-income/first generation college bound students (6th – 12th grade) with academic ability to realize their potential for education and growth beyond high school.
Service delivery includes individual and group counseling sessions, field trips, self-awareness assessments, decision making, academic skills, career and college exploration, postsecondary school tours, curricular choices, financial aid assistance, and re-entry services for dropouts. The program serves 750 youth (6th – 12th graders, graduates and dropouts) annually. Two thirds of the 750 are low-income and potential first-generation college students.
