Language Arts Intensive Reading English I – IV Intensive Math Algebra MJ Math I-III Geometry Liberal Arts Math Integrated Science Goals The Teen Parent West program serves to provide continuous educational and emotional support to teen parents / parents-to-be and their children. Students are educated in the program throughout the duration of their pregnancy and beyond in an environment where they can feel comfortable. It is the goal of the Teen Parent West program to help teen parents establish safe, healthy and productive lives for themselves and their children. In accomplishing this goal we can effect positive changes in the teens. Our mission is to reduce crime, violence, and homelessness through parenting education. Everybody wins —the children, the parents, their extended families, and the community at large. Once students have delivered they return to school with their babies or the infants can be enrolled in daycare provided within the community. Students will continue to receive their education while having the comfort of knowing that their babies are in a safe and nurturing environment.
