Abstract
The percentage of courses identified students passed in the first semester of his or her 9th grade year, and the number of days in attendance were compared. Results indicated that a student who attends EL Connect for a greater number of days will most likely complete all of his or her first semester courses during the 9th grade year. Further discussion of this research included the use of testimonials and case studies to strengthen the outcomes of implementing an after school program in a high school.
