Program Purpose

SAPP, a dropout prevention program, provides assistance for school age pregnant and parenting students, helping them:

• Remain in school
• Develop marketable skills
• Earn a diploma
• Acquire skills for lifelong self sufficiency
• Become the best possible parents

The School Age Parent Program provides childbirth education to pregnant students, and parenting education to students who have a child, including teen fathers, who are enrolled in LISD.  Classes offer instruction in prenatal care and child development as well as a peer support system under the guidance (direction) of case manager(s) and teachers.  Academic achievement and attendance are closely monitored so that students may be successful in completing their education.
