The program is named THRIVE (Together Harnessing Resources to Give Individuals Voice and Empowerment) North Texas and provides students with mental health services along with access to healthy foods at the campus grocery store.
Linda Tutt High School Disciplinary Alternative Education Program Love’s students are assigned by their home campus after they’ve violated the student code of conduct. Junior Dylan Crow is the student who threw the punch.
Now on medication to control a bipolar disorder diagnosis, Crow is thriving and has a bright future according to Love. Students and staff can shop in the high school’s room #9, but on Tuesdays the store is open to Sanger’s community.“This program has been able to help students like Dylan because we don’t have extracurricular activities here at this campus,” said Love. “This is the one program that students want to participate in and take pride in. They take ownership by helping stock the shelves, update inventory, and even make purchase orders. It’s become something they really care about.
Crow and his fellow student Logan Blair are just two of dozens of student volunteers who have gained a sense of pride volunteering at their school’s grocery store.
