SSHS Strategic Plan Early Childhood – Element 5

Background: APS Safe Schools Building Up Successful Students (BUSS) Initiative

The A.P.S. BUSS is a four year project with five elements:

1. Increase safety within Albuquerque Public Schools;
2. Reduce and prevent substance abuse among APS students;
3. Provide increased behavioral, social and emotional supports to APS youth;
4. Increase mental health services to APS students;
5. Ensure Albuquerque children are ready for school.

Key project strategies of the A.P.S. BUSS project are to:

1. close gaps in community services;
2. effect system change to improve access to resources, policies, programs and services;
3. implement an integrated comprehensive community‐wide plan to create safe, respectful drug free school environments and
4. to promote pro‐social skills and healthy childhood development.
