Finally, students were assigned volunteers from various financial and investment companies to help them begin participating in a Stock Market Challenge against 120 students from other Philadelphia high schools.

Imagine your students completing high school with a diploma and up to 27 transferable college credits, or multiple industry certifications to jump-start your college and career goals! This is what SDP’s Senior Year Only Programs (SYOP) are all about and the application is NOW OPEN until April 4th!
The Senior Year Only Program seeks to prepare high school seniors for both college and career by connecting classroom learning with real-world applications in the workplace.
Students enrolled in SYOP either take classes on a college campus or spend time at the Fox Chase Farm (where they'd earn industry certifications in urban agriculture).
The Senior Year Only Program is a full school year commitment.
Breakfast and lunch are provided.
All students will receive a SEPTA fare card for travel to and from the program. Additional information about transportation will be communicated to families after enrollment is confirmed.
See the flyer attached for more information!
