School-based Programs and Tools for the Promotion of Responsibility in the Community

The Center for Positive Futures is a technical-vocational high school for economically disadvantaged families. Aware that schoolchildren from these families can hardly afford college education, the school is preparing the students for work or higher technical education after graduation. It is also assisting parents in income generation. Also, it believes that the school should go beyond teachers, but rather, interacting with and making a developmental impact on the community.

Simultaneous programs are ongoing that include the Practice of Community and Environmental Responsibility in partnership with other local public elementary schools, A Library of Human Responsibilities that would serve both the school population and the community-at-large, A Girl Children’s Day celebration of the Women’s Month last March 2005, and a painting program.
