		Farrington is home to 2,500 students, many of whom are first- or second-generation immigrants who go on to become the first members of their families to attend college.

	Promising Practices in the Pacific Region
		Currently, the Teacher Academy being implemented at Marianas High School in the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI), with an emerging partnership with the Northern Marianas College of Education on the mentoring of students in the program, is yet another expression of interest in the academy concept in the Pacific region.
		School involvement on the part of the parents and on the part of the community at large is demonstrated by WEHEO’s “Hanai a class.” (Hanai is the Hawaiian term for adoption.) Eight agency volunteers, along with eight parents have adopted a fourth grade class.
		The tutors were able to maintain good grades in high school while they worked in the program, and although several of them already had some college plans, they gained more confidence in their ability to attend and succeed in college.
