The
Advisory Program
which meets twice a week is set aside for small groups of students
from different grade levels to explore topics of mutual interest
or get individual support centered around social growth. Each student
has an advisor to act as his or her advocate during all three years
in middle school.
The
Life Experiences Program
is based on EPIC (Every Person Influences Children), a self-esteem
program for students, parents and teachers that was primarily authored
by Beacon's founder, Thelma Farley. EPIC is currently being used
in schools nation-wide.
