Students and Parents: School on a Mission

The commitmet required to attend YES Prep demands familial support for its students. By: Grace Rubenstein

What did I learn? That education for many students including me takes a-lot of sacrifices, time, demands, and determination. In this case, families coming as immigrants see it as a mission to suceed in here especially since their parents and relatives sometimes don't have good jobs. It is also too much work, self-doubt, and a-lot of expectations. But, at the end ,our goal is to complete and graduate from college to have a better life in America.

What else would I like to learn? What type of curriculum do teachers use. Where YES Prep is located, and how much does the school charge and if it's a public school or if it's a private school. I also want to know if YES Prep has a website to visit its home page. Also, I would like to know if this YES Prep is more of a coummunity school where teachers and students know each other. I would also like to know if this school uses technology.
