Abstract | In 1989, the New York City Division of High Schools developed three summer programs designed to meet the needs of disadvantaged students: the Institute for Career Exploration (ICE), the Basic Skills Academy/Comprehensive Competency Program (BSA/CCP), and the Career Employment Center (CEP) Summer School Program. The ICE program had three components: ICE J (Jobs), ICE-C (Cultural), and ICE C-Cultural-English as a Second Language. During the summer, 6,159 students attended ICE classes at 52 sites. Seventy-eight percent of students improved in writing, thus meeting program goals. Just under 60 percent of the students completed an occupations course for credit, just missing program objectives. The third objective--that 70 percent of the students would meet attendance requirements--was not met. The BSA/CCP was designed to provide individualized instruction in reading, mathematics, and/or English as a second language for 100 students at 3 high schools. The program did not meet its primary objective that 70 percent of students would show a 0.4 grade level increase in these subjects; however, the program's objective of providing academic remediation was considered highly successful by staff. The CEC program provided academic remediation and enrolled homeless students in school; the program met and surpassed both of its objectives. (KC) |
