Project Summary:
GLCAC Inc. in collaboration with the Lawrence Public Schools and a variety of community partners will increase student academic achievement at the South Lawrence East Full Service Community School (SLE FSCS) through the provision of empirically-based wrap around support services which will be offered to students, their families and the community.
In order to ensure academic growth for all SLE FSCS students, GLCAC Inc. and its partners have proposed a comprehensive plan that includes afterschool, weekend, evening and summer support services. The SLE FSCS Plan is being offered in support of regulations from the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education. The Transformation Plan further addresses issues of absenteeism, truancy and suspension. The SLE FSCS will support 2,373 students, families and community members of the South Lawrence East area.
