Abstract: This dissertation closely examines the model of a suburban northern Delaware alternative program. The researcher determined how well this program successfully prepared 52 scholars to successfully transition forward into a comprehensive school. Each student in the study was removed from the comprehensive school and enrolled into the alternative school due to severe maladaptive behaviors, fighting, and truancy. The results suggest that small class sizes, increased teacher to student ratio, and nontraditional approaches, such as strong family rapport and increased student bonding helped to assist with positive outcomes with an at-risk student population. The results also suggest that educating an at-risk population requires ongoing professional development to assist personnel with the most effective and creative ways of educating youth.
