The A+ Schools program is a school-improvement initiative established by the Outstanding Schools Act of 1993.  The program is raising academic standards, opening new doors to higher education and introducing students to the teaching profession through tutoring and mentoring activities.

 

What are the goals of the A+ School?

The three goals of the program will ensure that all students:

  1. Graduate from High School

  2. Complete studies that are challenging and have identified  learning expectations.

  3. Proceed from high school to a college, a technical school, or a  high wage job with work place skill opportunities.

 

What must the student do to benefit?

  1. Attend a designated A+ School for three consecutive years prior  to graduation.

  2. Maintain a 95% attendance rate.

  3. Have a 2.5 minimum grade point average

  4. Complete 50 hours of unpaid tutoring/mentoring at a school setting.

  5. Maintain good citizenship, and avoid the unlawful use of drugs/alcohol.

  6. Make a good faith effort to obtain Federal Financial Aid (complete FAFSA form)

 

Students who have met the above criteria, may be eligible to receive tuition, certain fees and up to 50% of books paid for while attending a Missouri Community College, Vocational or Technical School as a full-time student and maintain a minimum GPA of 2.5 or higher.
