Zesty Approach to Progress (ZAP)

 

Picture
The Hodges Education Foundation provides training and learning activities during the Pamlico County High School early dismissal days, one in the fall and one in spring.  All high school-aged students are invited to attend.
ZAP offers many 90 minute courses during the half school day (morning) plus all day field trips to various and important locations such as Cherry Point Air Station and/or East Carolina University.  ZAP provides the time needed for many topics that cannot be completed during the weekly 25 minute LIFT meetings.  Its a great way for all students to receive personal development before graduation.

ZAP provides solid training in many key areas, courses listed below. ZAP is a great program where a high school student over their four years at high school can gain confidence, direction and purpose. ZAP is available to all Pamlico County high school-aged students (public, private and homed schooled). All courses and activities are available to the student to take when they desire, they are not required. ZAP will work closely with any student who has the desire and need.
