My Students

Students range from 14-18 and many are learning English as a second language. Located in the sunny mission, everyday teen moms and babies come to school. Young women can start at our school while they are expecting and continue after their baby is born. Students continue with their academic education as well as learn parenting skills, healthy baby strategies and useful community resources (including jobs and money management).

Our library includes books and electronic resources for academics and a makerspace as well as pleasure reading.

Our students have very busy lives filled with school, homework, jobs and family responsibilities of caring full-time for an infant! When they come to school, they are eager to learn both academic work, parenting skills and work related skills.

My Project

Every spring our young moms participate in a local bridge building program with architects. This year many of our students are seniors & they suggested getting some of these design studio kits.

These design projects will also encourage curiosity & trying original maker ideas.

Seniors will develop some checklists with ideas for new students. After students have learned skills using these kits & researching with the books, they will be better prepared for the annual bridge project as well as future careers.

Our students will work together learning design skills & in the future will be able to share this learning with their little ones.
