The Washington State Achievers Program has chosen Federal Way's Truman High School and 15 other public high schools to participate in a program designed to help more students reach and succeed in college. Each school will receive a five-year grant to support their work to become stellar, high achieving small schools.
Kids thrive when teachers know their names and can follow their progress.
Research also shows that students need to start planning for college early, that they need to be challenged in high school, and that, once academically prepared, they need support and financial assistance to make attending higher education a reality. This year, however, an additional 500 scholarships will be also awarded to seniors in these 16 high schools.
