Recently, it was said that the C.A.R.E. Center was closing for the 2018-2019 school year. Funding outside of school was going on to help raise money to keep the center open. Due to the help of students, educators, alumni, parents and community activism, the C.A.R.E. Center will remain open for next school year.
Along with the C.A.R.E Center remaining open, new classes will be forming. If you will be in 10th or 11th grade next year and interested in social work or community health advocacy tell your counselor that you are interested in the Social Work and Health Class. If you will be in 11th or 12th grade next year and are interested in pursuing a future in mental health and behavioral health tell your counselor that you are interested in the Mental and Behavioral Health Professional class.
These classes will help anyone with an interest in social work, community activism, community-health advocacy, mental-health professions, and if you would like to be a coach or educator.
Michael Gray, C.A.R.E Center counselor, will be teaching the new classes. The new classes will be counted as a “g” elective for the A – G college requirements.
