Connect Trenton serves as a referral source and connection point for out-of-school youth services for students at Trenton Central High School – 9th Grade Academy in order to increase student attendance, increase student academic achievement, increase student safety, provide support to school staff, and create an access point to community partners.
The Connect Trenton Coordinator manages the four main components of Connect Trenton: direct student referral services, transition services, professional development, and data and information collection. Currently, the Coordinator works with students at Trenton Ninth Grade Academy. In the future, this resource database will serve as an online “one-stop shop” for anyone in Trenton seeking information about out-of-school youth services.
