The Career Education Options (CEO) Youth Re-engagement Program works with youth ages 16-21 who are credit deficient and/or at-risk of dropping out of high school. This program enables youth to work toward their high school diploma, GED, professional-technical college certificate, or associate degree while receiving wrap-around services and support to help them succeed in their educational pursuits. We are committed to helping our students find that potential that will reconnect them to their individual path of success in education and career.
The CEO program is providing services and support for English language learners. For information regarding the CEO’s Language Integration Program please attend one of our info sessions. More information about LIP.
