LYFT (Leveraging Youth on the Freshman Team) is a freshman transition program for incoming 9th-grade students. The purpose of the program is to provide students with a smooth transition to high school and a greater understanding of how an education will affect their future. Students will tour their new building, learn about the importance of credits, visit local businesses and decide which positions may or may not be right for them, and much more. Students will also earn high school elective credit. In order to earn credit, students need to have perfect attendance for the week. We hope to make attendance easier by providing the option of transportation, along with daily breakfast and lunch at no cost to our families. The program is one week long, and will be conducted from 9:00AM-3:00PM, which also includes breakfast and lunch. This experience will be offered at Abraham Lincoln and Thomas Jefferson High School, depending on which high school your student will attend. Two sessions are offered. Students may sign up for one session only. Session One is June 5-9 and Session Two is July 10-14.
