The TRIAD program is designed to meet the needs of IEP diploma students ages 14-21 who have dropped out of school or at risk of dropping out of school. The program consists of four components: GED preparation for students who may be capable of passing the GED, behavior modification, life skills, and pre-vocational/career and technical training. The program provides students with the emotional, instructional, and/or behavioral support that they require for success. All academics are individualized to allow students to work at their own pace and their own ability level. A focal point of the program is to provide students a smooth transition into post-secondary programs and/or employment through transition planning. Students may participate in the School to Work Program
through employment and internships within the community or school environment. In addition, the students are taught life skills such as banking, transportation, and housing through a combination of classroom instruction and community experiences. The students may participate in community field trips, career exploration, and group internships. Social worker services for program coordination are a part of the program charge. Individual counseling is charged separately as a related service.
