BOYNTON BEACH, Fla. – Gulfstream Goodwill Industries is pleased to announce the 2016 student graduation for the Transition to Life Academy. The graduation will be held at 11 a.m. on Thursday, June 2, 2016, at the Scottish Rite Center, 2000 N D St, Lake Worth, FL 33460. The ceremony will include special recognition of our community partners.
The student population is primarily composed of Special Diploma post-graduates. The students’ academic performance and the school’s performance are derived from applying teacher developed and principal approved academic assessment tools and successful employment outcomes.
Students are given an opportunity to participate in work experience programs to learn the skills necessary to obtain employment in the community and live as independently as possible. Project SEARCH, a national, business-led work program is offered to students in a community business where they can learn on-the-job skills that lead to employment.
