The Black Student Achievement Program (BSAP) of The Howard County Public School System was established in 1986. Over the years, BSAP has been a viable resource to the school system, to black students, to their parents, and to the community.
Through a coordinated system of services, BSAP guides black students to
develop education, career and personal/social competencies. The ultimate
outcome is for black students to be prepared to excel as leaders ready to conquer
the challenges of the 21st century. BSAP assists the HCPSS with implementing
the Comprehensive Plan and achieving the goal of closing the achievement gap evident in state and data patterns.
Academic Transition Assistants and Academic Mentors are academic case managers who provide skilled support and information to students on their
formal and informal caseloads. Academic Transition Assistants and Academic Mentors work closely with school administrators, counselors, teachers, and
other student support specialists.
BSAP staff encourage students and parents to strive for:
•Report card grades above "C" in Math, English, Science, Social Studies
•Enrollment in college prep courses
•Enrollment in G/T and AP classes
•Passing scores on each HSA test
•Zero disciplinary referrals
•Involvement in at least one club or athletic team
