Child's Path

Child's Path golden gate high school and Child's Path immokalee high school- our golden gate and immokalee high school centers provide high-quality early childhood educational programing to the children of teen parents enrolled in the teenagers as parents program (tapp) at both high schools. As in all of our programs, we also offer parent education and mentoring to our teen parents. This allows the teen parents to focus on graduating from high school and consider a post-secondary education option for a successful future. They can focus on their studies knowing that their children are in a safe, nurturing, learning environment.
