裸聊直播 and Hayward Unified School District, partners in the Hayward Promise Neighborhood Initiative, have come together to launch the Farmers to Pioneers program — a pathway for first-generation Hayward High School students to begin college at 裸聊直播.

According to organizers, the intention of Farmers to Pioneers is to help students and their parents develop the skills and motivation necessary for student success in higher education. The program promotes academic achievement in school course work, community leadership, family engagement and a “college-going culture.”

“Farmers to Pioneers is a natural extension of the work 裸聊直播 is doing with Hayward Promise Neighborhood, ensuring all students who want to go to college have the tools and resources needed to become successful in college, and transition to a rewarding career,” said Carolyn Nelson, interim provost and vice president of academic affairs for 裸聊直播.

The name Farmers to Pioneers is a reference to the two schools' mascots — the Hayward High Farmers and the 裸聊直播 Pioneers. 

Through Farmers to Pioneers students will receive:

• academic tutoring and study skills
• mentoring
• personal values and career assessments
• job exploration and shadowing opportunities
• college campus visits
• financial aid information/application assistance and much more

A key component of Farmers to Pioneers is the inclusion of parents. Students receive weekly academic support and participate in various workshops once a month. Simultaneously, their parents are enrolled in workshops designed to ensure they too are prepared to support their students in transitioning into college.

“By high school, parents are typically disengaged with their child’s academics,” said Hope Cranford, outreach and admissions coordinator for CSUEB’s Educational Opportunity Program. “High school is a crucial time for parents to be involved because their child is making academic, social and personal decisions that will impact the rest of their life.”

“Parent involvement is vital because it creates a strong foundation for parents to truly understand what is needed for their child to thrive in college,” added Janevette Cole, Hayward Promise Neighborhood community resident engagement specialist.

In its inaugural year, Farmers to Pioneers launched with 22 10th grade students from Hayward High School. The goal is to recruit 20 new first-generation, low-income and foster youth each academic year, who will participate in the program until high school graduation. Following graduation, each student will have the opportunity to automatically enroll in 裸聊直播’s Educational Opportunity Program as a college freshman.
