Check and Connect
Check & Connect is a comprehensive intervention designed to enhance student engagement at school and with learning for marginalized, disengaged students in grades K-12, through relationship building, problem solving and capacity building, and persistence. A goal of Check & Connect is to foster school completion with academic and social competence.
Check & Connect is implemented by a trained mentor whose primary goal is to keep education a salient issue for disengaged students and their teachers and family members. The mentor works with a caseload of students and families over time and follows their caseload from program to program and school to school.
The Check & Connect trained mentor continuously:
1) Checks on students, assessing their engagement with school and learning through close monitoring of their attendance, behavior, and grades;
2) Connects with students, offering individualized intervention in partnership with school personnel, families, and community service providers.
