It proposed to promote motivation through awarding honors such as "Most Improved Student," or "Student of the Month." Assemblies were to be arranged to promote cultural awareness, and field trips were planned as incentives for academic achievement. In 1991-92, Project DREAM enrolled 492 students in grades 9 through 11 at South Bronx High School in the Bronx (New York City). All participants were considered limited English proficient. The project carried out its planned activities and expanded on them. Individual and group guidance sessions for job placement, parenting, pregnancy services, and other needs were conducted by project staff.
