WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT ALTERNATIVES UNLIMITED PROGRAMS:
|
Alternatives Unlimited often receives unsolicited letters of recommendation from
our partnering school districts, classroom teachers and parents of students. |
|
|
|
|
|
AU is proud to share the success of our students, not only in the classroom, but also in life. AU programs provide the individual attention and instruction necessary for our students to gain the confidence to meet their goals.
Students who have not experienced success in a traditional classroom environment may feel like they have little or no hope for the future. Alternatives Unlimited schools provide the opportunity for academic success for students who have "fallen through the cracks." Students have the chance to earn their High School diplomas, as well as continue on to college and become productive in society. |

"I have a student who completed his 14th hour of tutoring.
[At first], (student) was easily distracted and rarely stayed focused
for more than one or two minutes. I have noticed a gradual increase in his ability to read a text completely or work a page of math problems without stopping to "daydream".
Last week his increase of focus was remarkable. After we discussed the concept of the lesson, he worked through the lesson completely on his own...while I worked with another student. [Angel] willingly listens and responds to the introductory part of the lesson, then begins working without complaint."

"The greatest gift my classmates and I received was help and encouragement from Ms. Campbell and South High teachers and other staff. They contributed to us working hard, witnessing this day, and acquiring a high school diploma. We thank you. Our success and accomplishments are credited to you and your undying support." |

"I am grateful for the opportunity to attend South High as well as the opportunity to speak to all of you. I am proud of us all for taking advantage of our second chance. Despite some of the “not so smart choices” many of us have made in the past, we have all made the first of many smart decisions. The decision to stay in school against all odds, and against people who said we were unworthy or unfit for an education." |

"I have moved forward not only in school. I moved into my own apartment and have learned how to take care of myself. I realize that I would not be where I am right now if it were not for the people at Tri-County Learning Academy that cared enough to fight to help the girl that wouldn't listen to anyone. I learned here that some people are really trying to help you, and that I can accomplish anything I put my mind to." |
