ISSUE<br />

There was a lack <strong>of</strong> culturally relevant opportunities for<br />

learning <strong>and</strong> building relationships for the roughly 100<br />

African-American <strong>and</strong> Latino male students at Springfield<br />

High School. Parents <strong>of</strong> these youth were seeking academic<br />

<strong>and</strong> social supports for their teens, but to no avail. The school<br />

knew something must be done to bridge the gap in academic<br />

achievement for those students while also building on the<br />

core values <strong>of</strong> education to <strong>of</strong>fer diversity-rich activities <strong>and</strong><br />

increase parent involvement relative to collegiate engagement.<br />
