Who decides what is included in a Young Scholars ILP?
The Foundation educational adviser works closely with the Scholar, his/her family, and others to understand the abilities, talents, dreams, and goals for each Young Scholar. Educational advisers then develop individualized recommendations that can move the Scholar toward those goals. Family input is carefully considered, and parent(s) or guardian(s) always have the right to decline any recommendation. The Foundation’s program manager and other staff work directly with the educational adviser to assure that a realistic, balanced plan is presented to the Scholar and family.
