Teenage Parenting Program (TAP)

This program enables pregnant and parenting teens to continue their high school education and become responsible, competent mothers. A strong academic program adds appropriate electives to the mandated subjects. These electives cater to the students’ special needs and support their efforts to become independent, self-sufficient young adults with confidence in their ability to succeed.

Support services built into the program emphasize counseling, comprehensive health education, practical living skills, an understanding of child development, and peer support. An on-site nursery provides childcare during the school day and gives the teenage mothers the opportunity to learn hands-on parenting skills under the supervision of registered nurses while completing their graduation requirements. .

The program code (Coser) for this program is 406.
