A $3.9 million Aurora LIGHTS grant is shining the light on health sciences and creating a pathway that leads students into health care professions. As part of the program, some APS students are attending classes on Saturday - yes, Saturday!
The Aurora LIGHTS Saturday Academy provides an opportunity for 30 ninth-grade Health Sciences Academy students to participate in special enrichment sessions. Participation in this special program enhances the academic and cultural experience, and exposes students to hands-on, research-based science activities.
These activities are designed to prepare the students to excel in their academic coursework and increase their motivation to enroll in higher-level science and math classes.
The Aurora LIGHTS partnership includes APS, Community College of Aurora, University of Colorado-Denver, Metro Community Provider Network, Colorado AHEC System, Anschutz Medical Campus and Central Colorado AHEC.
