Stay In School Initiative

Purpose

In 2008, United Way of York County entered into a compact with YorkCounts following a recommendation from the MetroYork Education Task Force. The United Way established the Stay in School Initiative Committee to address the drop out problem in York County. Its purpose is to create a system that provides for an infrastructure for ongoing implementation and sustainability of proven practices for increasing the graduation rates at area high schools.
