We ensure that every youth has an equal opportunity to be successful, even after dropping out of school.
No challenge is as great as the one faced by at-risk students who have disengaged from their school system. The pandemic is having a more severe impact on at-risk students, and is thus contributing to an increase in school dropout rates. In the future, this will result in an unprecedented inequality of opportunities between youth who stay on track to graduate and those who are left behind.
Our Dropout Recovery Services are delivered independently from regular school operations, without impacting the school’s budget.
Your school system will increase student graduation and will secure additional funding to finance our program.
We have enrolled more than 24,000 dropouts since 2016, and the Department of Education (DOE) of your state has approved our instructional services and curriculum partner.
We deliver our Dropout Recovery Services independently from regular school operations, without impacting the school’s budget.
2,000 high schools in the USA will graduate less than 60% of their students.
1.3 million students drop out each year―one every 26 seconds.
Each dropout alone can lead to human tragedies, social injustices, and an economic burden of $704,000 for our society over that individual’s lifetime.
For many of these dropouts, there is no plan to continue their education or become qualified for mid- or high-end employment opportunities. At ChallengeU, we don’t believe in school failure. Our program is aimed at youth who can’t afford to get full-time education in a traditional classroom due to particular life and behavioral issues. We know that these dropouts can graduate.
With empathy, love, and caring, we provide resources, confidence and a clear path for dropouts to graduate from high school, and to pursue a life full of opportunities.
Because returning to a traditional school setting is seldom an option for students who have dropped out, ChallengeU has created a turnkey dropout recovery program. ChallengeU provides public school systems with a solution for reaching, re-engaging and supporting dropouts so that they can graduate―all without drawing on school’s resources or facilities.
We know that every youth is different—there is no one-size-fits-all approach to getting the best out of our students. Our experts will work closely with each student to understand them better and discover what works best for each one. Our team of counselors, graduation coaches, and teachers will adapt to the student’s needs, learning style, and life situation.
Our 360 wrap-around services help them to overcome obstacles and cross every hurdle on their path to graduation. These services include emotional support, graduation coaching, career counseling, talent discovery, and more to keep students focused and productive as they meet their graduation goals.
We are devoted to seeing the light shine brighter in the eyes of our future leaders by helping them achieve their high school diploma.
