Century's PACE program
is modeled after a highly successful, nationally-recognized program called ACE (Achieving a College Education Program).
Based in Phoenix, Arizona, the ACE program has significantly reduced high school dropout rates
in urban high schools in selected U.S. cities.
PACE successes
Our first group of PACE students posted impressive results:
- 96% course completion rate
- 90% of grades earned have been 'C' or better
- 100% of students graduated high school
- 100% are enrolled or accepted into college
Family support
As a family member, your support is critical to your student's success. You can help your son or daughter by:
- providing transportation when needed
- attending family meetings and events
- encouraging your student to "stay on course"
PACE seeks to build a strong partnership and network of encouragement, and does this by providing the
following activities:
- Information nights for parents/guardians/families
- Workshops on supporting students’ success in college, financial aid, scholarships
- Translations of materials for parents/guardians first languages
