New Start Means Second Chance
Marcy Rose was very far behind in high school credits due to serious health problems. She ended up out of school because she felt that earning a high school diploma was too far out of her reach. Case Manager Arthur Dennis recruited Marcy from Highline Public Schools' truancy list. He was able to show her that New Start's Alternative Education Program could offer her credit retrieval and get her back on track. Marcy enrolled into the New Start Program and was such a great student that teachers gave her high recommendations to enroll into SeaTac's Occupational Skills Center. Marcy has been there since the beginning of this school year, and has been so successful she has been inducted into the 2006/2007 National Honor Roll. Marcy is on her way to graduating in June 2007.
