5. Describe what the research showed about your targeted population for assets (strengths) and areas of growth (needs).
Research showed that students at Greece arcadia High School have multiple opportunities to be successful within the classroom as well as out.
There are classes that student can take to go straight into the working field once they leave high school. The students take classes off of campus
that helps to certified them in the job field they desired. Students also get a chance to earn college credits that are connected to some of class, they
take at the school which are dual credits. Students also have the opportunity to participate in extracurricular activities such as sports, clubs, and
field trips. Several students attend top universities across the country and earn academic and athletic scholarships. However, research shows that
mental health, drugs and alcohol are a huge deal when it comes to the high school level. There are more and more students using inside and
outside of school which is affecting their mental health. There are also students that come from low-income families or families that are English
language learners. Many students don’t have the support they need which leads to unwanted behaviors as well as poor metal health.
