The intent of this program is to increase student achievement of the Core Curriculum Content Standards and family involvement in their children's education through the provision of staff-supported "off-hour" access to additional educational opportunities.
To address the need for public access to technology for Trenton families, Trenton proposes the establishment of three ACE centers in the city. Each center will provide students and parents with year-round, day, evening, and weekend training and accessibility. The three centers would provide a safe and equitable learning environment for children and adults to gain Cross-Content Workplace-Readiness Skills.
Existing centers:
Trenton Central Services (cyberspace labs)
108 N. Clinton Avenue
Trenton, NJ 08609
(classes for students and adults)
Hedgepeth / Williams Middle School
301 Gladstone Avenue
Trenton, NJ 08629
(classes for students and adults)
Trenton Afterschool Program (TASP) at Trinity Cathedral -
801 W. State Street
Trenton, NJ 08618
(classes for students)
The ACE Program may expand the number of centers in the future.
