Moreno Valley Puente

Moreno Valley Puente The Puente Project was co-founded in 1981 by Felix Galaviz, Counselor, and Patricia McGrath, English Professor, at Chabot College in Hayward.

The co-founders were concerned about the high drop-out rate of Hispanic/Latino students on campus. They believed that the best hope of reversing this trend was to develop a system that would serve the needs of the whole student in a carefully monitored, highly accountable and culturally integrated way. Puente's model was created on the assumption that any student, regardless of past performance, h

as the potential to succeed academically if provided with the right tools and learning environment. Therefore, Puente serves students from the full range of demonstrated ability levels. Puente’s model combines an academically challenging curriculum with a cross-functional support network of specially trained teachers and counselors, parents, families and members of the local community. Puente is co-sponsored by the University of California and the California Community Colleges, with additional funding provided by the college.
