How Effective is Challenge Day?

Challenge Day is a powerful program for positive change. Students are profoundly changed by it, and are empowered to be a force for change in their schools, their personal lives and their community.

Coral Shores High School, FL is a safer place, thanks in part to Challenge Day! Quoted in the Key Largo Times, leadership class teacher Cheryl Cooke said, "Since we started, there has been a 67 percent drop in disciplinary incidents. That, in itself, should speak for the program and what we have done."

The data comes from the Monroe County High School Safety and Environment Report, which logs crime and violence incidents at the county's three high schools. "During the 2002-03 school year at Coral Shores, the number of reported incidents was 20, down from 70 just two years earlier," the article said. "Monroe County Safe School Coordinator Mike Henriquez attributes part of that change to Challenge Day and the leadership class, but also said that the new building at Coral Shores as well as other MYCP [Monroe Youth Challenge Program] programs played a part."
