My class "Documenting Family History for Teen-Age Parents" is a new class created with the objective that the young parents can be able to catalog and research their family history and the effect on the development of their new family. All of the students are from a high need community of Puerto Ricans, Mexicans and Afro-Americans. Our school has offered to the community, for the last 35 years, the services of the Family Learning Center. A center that helps young parents to obtain a high school diploma with the benefit of an on-site childcare center. It also tries to strength parenting with male role models, and help with literacy problems at their own home in order to create self-confidence and future education plans to improve their families.
