Course Description:
The Truancy and Absence Intervention Program for Students (TIPS) focuses on areas of self-esteem, positive thinking, motivation, and reaching full potential. In addition, the program also covers why school is important, useful, and not a waste of time. We provide examples of how math and reading skills are used in the real world to promote the importance of school. We also share the chilling statistics of those who fail to graduate. Both are done in contrast to show the overwhelming benefits of finishing school and the how the absence from school can destroy young lives – a choice most regret. It is important to have hope for the future.
