Following through with a promise.

The 2011/2012 school year will be a pioneer year for Take Stock in Children Duval as we officially transition to our new home at Florida State College at Jacksonville and focus needed resources and attention on college completion for Take Stock Scholars.

The case for investing in Take Stock in Children is stronger now than ever. By providing individualized attention to our college students through continued mentoring and case management, we can help them overcome the obstacles that can often prevent success at the post-secondary level.

We will better serve our high school and middle school students as well. The resources at Florida State College allow for early exposure to college campuses beginning in middle school and provide college readiness skills to high school students through dual enrollment, college placement testing and early remediation. The better we can prepare our students for post-secondary education, the better their scholarships will serve them.

The students we serve are the return on our investment, as they become contributing members of the community. Take Stock in Children is proud of its past fourteen-year history of breaking the cycle of poverty through successful education. We look to an exciting future.

Please continue to support Take Stock in Children by purchasing Stock Options in a graduating class. Your investment allows us to serve a greater number of deserving students by providing mentors, scholarships and hope.
