College and Career
FOR NEW VILLAGE STUDENTS, PREPARING FOR SUCCESS IN COLLEGE BEGINS IN THE 9TH GRADE
Not only do students develop an individual learning plan designed to meet college acceptance requirements, but each student explores her own career interests through field trips, internships, and independent projects. During this process, students discover what kinds of education, training, and college degrees are necessary to be successful in various careers.
Our students enthusiastically participate in college visits and also develop close relationships with mentors who share their own experience of the challenges and rewards of attending college. Upon graduating New Village, some students may choose an option other than college, but our curriculum prepares each of our students to have the option to apply.
Seniors have the opportunity to participate in the College Readiness Internship where they are supported through the whole college application process: college essay writing, FAFSA/Dream Act workshops, scholarships, and college applications. Students who are interested in community college are also able to receive support from our partnered community college, Los Angeles City College. Each Spring break, New Village takes a group of students on a five day road trip to the Bay Area to explore various UC’s, CSU’s, and private universities. This is a great opportunity to explore colleges outside of the Los Angeles area. The trip is offered at no cost to students who attend the program.
