Proviso Township High Schools District 209 offers the DREAM, PEACE and Seniors Plus alternative programs under the Proviso Alternative Learning Opportunities Program (Proviso ALOP), which is operated in partnership with the West 40 Intermediate Service Center.
-
DREAM Program
The purpose of the DREAM Program is to provide critically credit-deficient students with the opportunity to recover credit during the school day. The DREAM Program operates out of the Personalized Learning Centers established at Proviso East and Proviso West. Students are generally assigned to original credit English and math classes taught by District 209 teachers assigned to the DREAM Program and a credit recovery period. Together, these three periods are considered the “DREAM Block,” with one block in the morning and one in the afternoon. Students are then scheduled into regular classes for the day outside the DREAM Block.
-
PEACE Program
The purpose of the PEACE Program is to provide programming for students at risk of not graduating due to behavior-related issues in a supportive, smaller learning environment. The PEACE Program can serve 60 students during two daily sessions. Students are placed in the PEACE Program by recommendation of the school staff. Students may also be placed at PEACE in lieu of expulsion.
-
Senior Plus Program
The purpose of Seniors Plus is to meet the needs of those students who are in their fifth or later year of high school and who have not yet completed their graduation requirements. Students will complete the coursework needed to meet those requirements in the Seniors Plus program. The Seniors Plus Program can serve 60 students during two daily sessions. The program is located in the PEACE Center.
