Alcoa High School in coordination with the School to Career programs have selected violence reduction and reading improvement as the two areas where “”Building Bridges”" between the schools, businesses, and community agencies create safe pathways for children. The objective is to empower high school students to become problem solvers as they address the issues that deal with violence and diversity. By utilizing reading, drama, art, music and puppetry this group of student role models will impact younger children with the message of peaceful resolution and making positive choices.
