The Next Steps Program is designed to collaborate with our students to create and implement a plan to move forward after graduation and explore and maximize their limitless potential. You do not have to graduate from HOPE Academy to participate in our Next Steps Program.
Shawn Alexander was struggling at being able to earn his high school diploma via traditional public school. He enrolled in HOPE Academy.
Before starting to work on earning his High School Diploma with HOPE Academy, Shawn's Next Steps Mentor collaborated with him to create and implement a plan for his "Next Steps"once graduated.
Shawn Alexander's Next Steps Dream was to enlist in the US Marine Corps. Shawn's Next Steps Mentor connected Shawn to a local Marine Recruiter while working on completing his high school diploma.
Shawn worked very hard to keep his full-time job; support his family; and complete his high school diploma at HOPE Academy. On March 30, 2023 Shawn Alexander successfully completed his foundational high school diploma. On April 17, 2023, Shawn boarded a bus headed to Marine Corps Boot Camp!
Just a few days ago we heard from Shawn's wife that he had successfully completed his training and was coming home before being transferred to his first official posting.
We are SO PROUD of you Shawn Alexander!!
