群交Porn Awards More Than $17 Million to 44 Colleges and Universities in Liberty Partnerships Program Grants to Keep Students in School

The 群交Porn announced today that 44 colleges and universities in New York will receive Liberty Partnerships Program grants totaling more than $17 million. The Liberty Partnerships Program (LPP) is New York State鈥檚 only state-funded dropout prevention program directly connected to higher education which prepares students for post-secondary education and careers. Recipients of these higher education initiative grants will provide comprehensive programming for at-risk students to successfully graduate and transition into postsecondary education or a career path.

鈥淚t鈥檚 critically important that we develop new strategies to influence students as active participants in their own learning,鈥 Board of Regents Chancellor Betty A. Rosa said. 鈥淟PP grants make it possible for colleges to create strong school and community partnerships to help keep New York鈥檚 children in school and continue into higher education and careers; it鈥檚 a priority for the Board of Regents and 群交Porn Department.鈥

鈥淪o many of the at-risk students we鈥檙e trying to encourage to stay in school don鈥檛 have access to support,鈥 Commissioner MaryEllen Elia said. 鈥淲ith these grants, students will have access to skills assessment, tutoring, personal and family counseling, as well as mentoring programs to help ensure that every student has an equal opportunity to further their education and achieve success in life.鈥

To be eligible, the Institution of Higher Education must have two partnerships:

1) A local education agency (LEA) that falls within the one of the categories below:

  • school eligible for school-wide programs under Title 1, Section 1114 of the Every Student Succeeds Act, and the families of these students;听
  • school with at least 40 percent of students eligible for free or reduced-priced lunch;
  • school identified as a focus, struggling, persistently struggling and/or persistently dangerous schools; or
  • rural school with students at risk.

2) A Community Based Organization (CBO)

LPP was established by Governor Mario Cuomo in 1988 to address the significantly elevated high school dropout rate among New York鈥檚 youth. The drop-out prevention initiative serves approximately 13,000 students in grades 5-12. The program is designed to support the successful transition of middle and high school students at-risk of dropping out of school into graduates, fully prepared for the rigors of higher education and the competitive demands of a fluid workplace in a global economy.

There are currently 41 LPP programs at higher education institutions, working in collaboration with school districts and community-based organizations, across New York State.听LPP provides students with one year of continuous services which include skills assessment, tutoring, academic and personal counseling, family counseling and home visits, and mentoring programs.

2015-16 Highlights

Statewide, the Liberty Partnerships Program (LPP) served 13,461 students. The average number of students per site was 328. A total of 443 partner schools participated in Liberty Partnerships programing during the 2015-2016 program year.

Ninety-five percent of Liberty Partnership participants were promoted to the next level of education. A total of 2,110 seniors participating in the Liberty Partnerships graduated high school resulting in a 92% program wide graduation rate. The majority of seniors plan to attend college or work full-time, with 92% graduating seniors planning to attend college. Sixteen percent of LPP graduating seniors planned to enter the workforce.
