High School Programming
The YEP high school program provides students with access to after school activities designed to enrich their high school experience and improve their social and interpersonal skills, establish relationships with their teachers and peers, and improve their academic performance with programs like Credit Recovery, Bridge to College, and Driver’s Education. YEP also sponsors teacher-led activities such as the African American Student Union, Newspaper Club, Robotics Club, Polynesian Club, and Ballet Folklorico. Teachers and/or school staff facilitate these sponsored activities.
While there are activities scheduled Monday through Friday from the time school ends until 6:00 pm, students only attend the classes or activities for which they have registered during their scheduled days and times.
BRIDGE TO COLLEGE
Bridge to College is the only program in California - and possibly, the nation - designed to provide college & career exploration to HUSD students beginning in the 7th grade through 12th grade. In partnership with Chabot College, instructors provide courses on campus, directly after school, to expose students to the rigor of college-level classes and instill in them that college is possible!
Participation Requirements
In order to enroll in Bridge to College courses, students must meet the following enrollment criteria:
- Be enrolled in 7th through 12th grade at the time of enrollment
- Have a GPA of 3.0 or higher
CREDIT RECOVERY
The YEP Credit Recovery program provides students with the opportunity to get back on schedule to graduate when they have fallen behind. The program is led by teachers and operates Monday - Friday from 3:45-5:45 PM. Priority registration is for Seniors. To be referred to the program, students need to contact their school counselor.
