> The Zone

 

The ZONE is a school-based youth service run by the Bergen Family Center from the North Building of Dwight Morrow High School.   Students in The Zone develop leadership skills through self-discovery, goal creating and writing.  They can receive counseling, support, and tutoring.   In 2010, The Zone has helped more than 250 students maintain emotional well-being and develop skills needed for high academic and positive social performance.   A summer program beginning July 13th helps orient incoming 9th graders.

The afternoon program meets three days a week over the first two weeks, and two days in the third week.
