Parkway’s educational program is centered on a real world curriculum. The emphasis is on teaching basic skills in Math, English/Language Arts, Science, and Social Studies while following the Delaware State Curriculum Standards. Students will move forward to their home schools better equipped with these important and fundamental skills in the Core subjects. Additionally, high school students have an opportunity to earn additional credits needed towards graduation through the computer based “Educational Options” program. This program allows students to work at their own pace with the assistance of a certified teacher to complete high school coursework. Parkway’s unique student-centered and school-wide counseling program aims at focusing on each student’s strengths and weaknesses. Every Parkway student has a counselor and meets with them for individual and/or group therapy weekly. The Parkway Counseling team concentrates on the personal development and behavioral interventions for each student. A team environment is utilized including core and special education teachers, counselors, discipline staff, the school and community liaison, and the Principal to create a therapeutic environment throughout the school. Having students meet their behavioral improvement goals is equally important as meeting academic success at The Parkway Academy. Our goal at Parkway is to ensure that every student is prepared for a successful transition to their home school by demonstrating academic and behavioral improvement. We work closely with the school districts to develop an individualized plan which includes goals and indicators of success for each student. Transition is a process therefore our team of teachers, counselors and discipline staff remain strongly connected to transitioning students to provide continuing support and services for their success in their home school. A to Z provides effective, high-quality tutoring to students to improve their grades and their ability to learn. Many of our clients were born into poverty, and some were abused, neglected or abandoned. With the right inspiration and a little help on the academic front, these kids can quickly catch up in school, get ahead and develop the skills and self-esteem to be successful in life. Individualized programs are tailored to the unique needs of each child and services are offered in the client’s home, at their school or in the community. Upon completing the A to Z program, students typically acquire six new math skills and six new language arts skills. On average, student composite scores increase by 21% from pre-test scores to post-test scores. And parents love the A to Z program. In surveys of parents completed at the conclusion of every school year, A to Z receives very high marks year in and year out. Parents see improvements in areas such as: grades, behavior at school, attendance and self-esteem. Last year, A to Z’s parent satisfaction rate was 97%. A to Z was founded in Nashville, TN and provides tutoring to children in 22 states and Washington, DC. A to Z’s corporate office is located in Brentwood, TN. LogistiCare has been managing non-emergency medical (NEMT) and other social service transportation programs for government agencies and managed care organization (MCOs) since 1989. LogistiCare currently is the nation’s largest and most experienced manager of Medicaid NEMT programs for state governments and MCOs, providing over 17 million NEMT trips annually in 36 states and the District of Columbia. LogsitiCare has also managed other types of human service transportation programs such as ADA paratransit, school transportation, commercial ambulance, and elderly dial-a-ride services. LogistiCare pioneered what is known as the “brokerage” model for delivering transportation services. Under the brokerage model, the funding entity outsources the management of their transportation benefit to a professional transportation management company, usually under a full-risk capitated financial arrangement. LogistiCare’s consistent record of cost saving and service quality has been instrumental in the increasing adoption of the NEMT broker model by state Medicaid agencies and MCOs throughout the country.
